Summary
Nebraska Public Power District representatives told the Logan County Board on March 18 that construction on the R-Project 345 kV transmission line, previously at a standstill, will soon restart; the project team provided a phone number and website for questions.
Representatives from the Nebraska Public Power District briefed the Logan County Board of Commissioners on March 18, saying construction on the R-Project 345 kilovolt transmission line, which had been at a standstill, will soon resume.
Paul Brune, with NPPD, and NPPD board members Rusty Kemp and Kirk Olson updated the commissioners on project status and urged residents with questions or concerns to contact the project team at 888-677-3412 or visit rproject.nppd.com. Representatives from Forbes Bros. Timberline Construction accompanied NPPD at the briefing.
The board did not take formal action on the transmission project during the meeting; the presentation was informational. The update is notable for residents and landowners along the planned route because transmission construction can involve right-of-way activity and temporary impacts to roads and property access. The transcript does not include additional details on timing, permitting or local mitigation measures.
For further information or specific local concerns, the NPPD project contact information provided during the March 18 meeting is the record cited by the presenters.
