BLM Transmission LIne Consideration

The Bureau of Land Management is looking for your feedback on a proposed transmission line that would cut across northwest Colorado. TransWest Express want to build a transmission line to carry wind generated power from southern Wyoming to places across the southwest, including Las Vegas, Phoenix, and Los Angeles. The proposed line would be built on public and private lands in Rio Blanco and Moffat counties, continuing on into Utah and Nevada. However, an alternate plan would bring the lines through De Beque Canyon and across the Bookcliffs in Mesa County. If approved, construction on the line could begin as early as 2013.
