SCC approves study for Appalachian Power line route
The Virginia State Corporation Commission on Thursday asked Appalachian Power to provide how the 765 kV transmission line from Wyoming County West Virginia to Cloverdale north of Roanoke will be used and to explore reducing impact on Craig and Roanoke counties. The commission said the file shows a need to add capacity to prevent outages and degradation, while noting the project will affect the Sinking Creek Valley. Appalachian Power has 90 days to study route alternatives and answer questions as the U.S. Forest Service drafts an environmental impact statement due in April 1996.
