Certificates of Public Convenience and Necessity and Transmission Lines - Notice to Landowners

Summary

The bill forces any public service company seeking a certificate of public convenience and necessity to send certified‑mail notices to owners of the land where a line will be built, owners of adjacent land, and owners of land that abuts the project site. The notice must explain the owners’ right to intervene in the permitting hearing, how to file, the filing deadline, and contact information. If the notice is not sent, the hearing is invalid and the permit application can be voided.
