Prohibiting the permitting and siting of electric transmission lines within any area designated by the United States department of energy as a national interest electric transmission corridor.

Summary

The bill would stop the Kansas Corporation Commission from issuing siting permits for electric transmission lines that run through any area the U.S. Department of Energy has designated a National Interest Electric Transmission Corridor. It also bars utilities from exercising eminent domain in those corridors, except when a permit was granted before the federal designation. The measure failed to advance and died in committee.
