PCN 8-1 | 5/12/2025 1:20:13 PM | PUC | General Comment | Web | Bill | Smith | MEDFORD | I live on Foothill Road. PP&L has approached me about an easement covering 6.75 acres of my land. The easement will allow for 4 "H" poles on our land with 230 kilovolts transmission lines. My first concern is that they do not want to get an appraisal for the easement. My second concern is that they could bury the lines instead of "H" poles. The H poles are set 12' apart, which takes up a lot of area that I'm farming. It's difficult to work around the 100' poles, and the static electricity causes me to get shocked when I open the gates. Also, we may not be able to use the home sites established because of the location of the poles and the power lines overhead. How do we convince the power company to bury the lines? Take care, Bill |
