The New York State Public Service Commission will hold a public statement hearing, and otherwise invites public comments, on a proposal by the Hudson Transmission Partners to construct a transmission line connecting an existing substation in Ridgefield, New Jersey to the West 49th Street substation owned by Consolidated Edison. The 345 kV line will enter the Hudson River at Edgewater, New Jersey and will be buried beneath the riverbed and proceed south to a point adjacent to Piers 92 and 94 opposite West 52nd Street where it will enter Manhattan.

The proposed transmission facility, if built, would provide the New York Power Authority with transmission access to sources of power in the PJM electric system, a regional transmission operator in Pennsylvania that coordinates the movement of wholesale electricity in all or parts of 13 states and the District of Columbia.

Interested members of the public may provide their comments regarding this matter at a public statement hearing to be held as follows:

APRIL 27, 1 p.m.
NYS Department of Public Service
4th Floor Board Room
90 Church Street
Manhattan, NYC
