Document Description
In response to Congressional mandate, Western proposes to build a new "Firehouse" switchyard in the City of Needles and build a new 3.95-mile long transmission line between the proposed Firehouse switchyard and the existing, "No Name" Substation. The No Name Substation is located east of AZ State Route 95 and is owned by Aha Macav Power Services (AMPS). The transmission line would span the Colorado River. Approximately 0.2 mile of the proposed project is located in California, with the remainder in Arizona.
