The proposed power line project in Greene and Fayette counties has raised resident concerns regarding its impact and benefits. Senior director Kaitlin McCormick stated that efforts were made to avoid homes and businesses during the routing process.

The project is intended to support long-term power needs in the region and will connect to a substation in Virginia. An application for a siting certificate was submitted to the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission, initiating a review process with a 60-day window for public objections. Construction is scheduled for 2029, with service expected to begin in 2031.
