Document Description
In order to maintain service reliability and meet increasing electric load demands in the City of Lincoln, PG&E proposes to install ~12 miles of 115 kV power line between Rio Oso Substation and Lincoln Substation by replacing the existing wires (conductors) with the new wires on a roughly 2 mile portion of an existing 60 kV power line and by overbuilding (installing new wires over existing wires) approximately 10 miles of existing 12 kV distribution lines within the existing power line corridor. The new conductor will eliminate forecasted line overloads. PG&E proposes to replace wooden power poles with a combination of concrete, wood, and tubular steel poles (TSP) within the existing power line corridor.
