Document Description
Note: Review Per Lead
SCE is proposing to raise a segment of existing 66 kV subtransmission lines, a 12 kV distribution line, and a fiber wrap, and remove a 220 kV line in order to provide additional vertical conductor clearance across the Cerritos Channel. The transmission towers on which the lines are located would also be replaced. Raising and replacing the lines would provide additional clearance, thereby allowing bigger ships access to existing and potential future marine cargo terminals along the channel.
The existing foundations and transmission towers on the south side of the Channel currently reside in the channel due to previous subsidence in the area. The timber pile-supported concrete foundations would be removed once the tower structures are removed. Three sets of towers on the north side of the channel would be removed or modified to hold the new transmission lines.
