NV Energy wants to build a 60-kilovolt line that would go from Foothill Road in the Carson Valley to Tramway Drive at the top of Kingsbury Grade.

The U.S. Forest Service has released a notice of public scoping for an environmental assessment.

The line will be a combination of single-pole and double-pole H frame structures that will be strategically placed within approximately the middle third of the alignment to allow the transmission line to span numerous road crossings and canyons along the alignment.

It will go from 30 single poles to seven H frame.

SPPCo is the environmental consultant for the project.
