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

Summary

The bill obligates any public service company applying for a certificate of public convenience and necessity to build a transmission line to send certified‑mail notice to the owners of the land where the line will be placed and to owners of adjacent land at least 30 days before a hearing. The notice must describe the project and tell owners they may intervene in the proceeding. If the notice is not given, the hearing is invalid and the application can be voided, though the applicant may submit a new application.
