Duke Energy transmission line plans visible in Hendersonville debate
North Carolina public staff will review Duke Energy's 650-megawatt natural gas plant at Lake Julian and a 45-mile transmission line to serve Western North Carolina. Residents question need and underground routing, while Hendersonville seeks a greenway easement and partnership in construction to minimize impact and keep ridgelines intact. Local officials, Polk County towns, and U.S. Rep Mark Meadows weigh in amid opposition and potential corridor adjustments.
