West Virginia University's Erickson Alumni Center will hold the first of several public hearings on the Trans-Allegheny Interstate Line, which Allegheny Energy wants to run across north-central West Virginia from Pennsylvania to northern Virginia.
Public Broadcasting has an item on the hearing schedule.
The Charleston Gazette has some background as well on the proposed $1.3 billion, 500-kilovolt-transmission line.
Public Broadcasting also has another piece on the topic of power generation, this one on net metering. West Virginians "who generate their own electricity can now sell the excess to the power company." With audio.

Seems to me that they ought to just build a power plant near those eastern cities that need the electricity rather than tear up my state.
The Charleston Gazette also has a two-part series, Lines of Power, available at http://www.wvgazette.com/section/Series/Lines+of+Power/.
