Recommendation Detail

PENDING

Environment Alternatives High Priority

Request a detailed infrastructure assessment outlining the specific transmission line corridors and substation locations required to connect the Revell site to the Ontario electricity grid.

Strategic Rationale

"The Proponent's submission states that 'most energy needs' will be met by the provincial grid but fails to describe the physical footprint of this connection. For Melgund Township, the introduction of new high-voltage transmission infrastructure represents a significant alteration to the terrestrial environment (Land). By requiring this information now, the community can evaluate alternative routing options to minimize habitat fragmentation and ensure that the 'best available technologies' cited in the text extend to minimizing the physical disturbance of the local landscape."
