Environmental Impact Statement for 500-kV Transmission Line in Middle Tennessee

The Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) will prepare an environmental impact statement (EIS) addressing the proposed construction and operation of a new 500-kV transmission system in northern Middle Tennessee. This 500-kV transmission line would be located within a study area extending from near Cumberland City northeast to Clarksville and southeast to near Nashville, and including parts of seven counties in Tennessee. The EIS will evaluate the potential environmental impacts of the construction, operation, and maintenance of the line. TVA will use the EIS process to obtain public involvement on this proposal. Public comment is invited concerning both the scope of the EIS and environmental issues that should be addressed as a part of this EIS.
