EIS-0447: Amended Notice of Intent to Prepare an Environmental Impact Statement

Champlain Hudson Power Express Transmission Line Project, New York

DOE issued an amended Notice of Intent and is conducting additional public scoping on its Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) (DOE/EIS-0447) for the Champlain Hudson Power Express, Inc., transmission system project (Champlain Hudson Project). An amended application was filed with DOE on February 28, 2012, for a Presidential permit for the Champlain Hudson Project. The amended application for Champlain Hudson Project reflects changes made as a result of negotiations with State of New York agencies and other stakeholders as part of the project review under Article VII of the New York Public Service Law.
