The Public Service Commission of Wisconsin has approved a new $25 million transmission line project near Eden. PSC commissioners agreed on the need for the Creekview Interconnection Project and approved the north route proposed by ATC in its application filed earlier this year. The project manager says the 138,000-volt transmission line will support the low-voltage distribution system in the region by connecting to a new We Energies substation. The project was announced in spring 2014 and includes a new We Energies substation, called Creekview, located on the north side of County Highway F, east of Greenway Road, and a new, 9-mile, 138-kV transmission line to provide service to the new substation. Construction is expected to begin in the fall of 2016.
