I bet the Obama Regime and his environweeny thugs will shut down these plans before the first blade of grass is moved.
Au contrair. This is happening in my area. These transmission lines lower property values and are alleged to cause or exacerbate illness in humans and livestock. The first two proposed routes were met with organized resistance from the impacted citizens and municipalities. Devout progressives, all, they researched the proposal, certain they would uncover evil right wing capitalists at work. Lo and behold, the project was being fast tracked by the Administration and the only beneficiaries were cronies of the Administration.
The zer0bot who did most of the research went into complete denial. Eventually, the route bypassed our area and the organized resistance has moved forward to protesting the mining of fracking sand.
