DOE announces public hearings to receive comments on the Draft EIS and the Supplement to the Draft EIS. The Draft EIS and Supplement evaluate the potential environmental impacts of DOE’s proposed Federal action of issuing a Presidential permit to Northern Pass Transmission, LLC (the Applicant) to construct, operate, maintain, and connect a new electric transmission line across the U.S./Canada border in northern New Hampshire. The proposed transmission line would cross the border in Pittsburg, NH, and continue to Deerfield, NH.
