Route A still being considered for the Susquehannah-Roseland project ?


The NPS is currently in the process of accepting comments on PSE&G's approved Route B, which would cut through the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation area [Click the link via the underlined text]. Alternatives include revisiting the two previously proposed routes A or C - as well as other separate options of rerouting Route B and Do Not Build.

Everyone is able to comment.

Neighboring Wantage Township contines to stand in opposition to Route A, which would also impact Montague. Route A would initially enter NJ by the Delaware River, cross over from PA in the vicinity of lower Mashipacong Island.. run parallel to Mashipacong Rd., then head east into and through High Point State Park and cross across the Appalachian Trail.

Our PA neighbors are renewing their opposition. Data is presented online, which shows the height of the proposed power lines.

PSE&G Alternative Route Identification Report - is a report done of all three routes and notes data specifically pertinent to Montague.

Route B is currently opposed by Stop the Lines, and videos and information are posted at Oppose the Towers. The transmission lines would not bring additional power to many of the communities it would affect along the Delaware River. It is essentially a power highway.. with no local exits. The new lattice towers and poles for these lines are proposed at heights of 190 feet .. 30 feet shorter than High Point Monument.
