Public Involvement

NPPD used a thorough and comprehensive public involvement process to site the R-Project transmission line and continues to keep the public informed. More than 1,750 individuals attended one of 20 public open houses and public meetings and eight public hearings, providing NPPD with approximately 2,500 comments. The comments were reviewed against more than 50 established line routing criteria that included proximity to occupied residences, towns, villages, and other amenities, plus land use, environmental, engineering, and construction criteria.

What is NPPD’s R-Project?
