Transmission Line Training & Strategy Meeting Thursday, March 19, 2009 8:30 am - 6:00 pm Cacapon Resort State Park Berkeley Springs, West Virginia
The Sierra Club is sponsoring a one-day meeting to educate activists, attorneys, public officials, and others on transmission line issues in the east. The goal of the meeting is to bring together individuals and organizations concerned about new transmission lines that are intended to expand coal-fired power generation, with an eye towards the upcoming Potomac-Appalachian Transmission Highline (PATH) in particular.
Topics we plan to cover include, among others: the PJM planning process, how to support transmission for renewables without supporting coal, alternatives to new transmission, the legal framework for transmission line siting, and lessons from the TrAILCo line. In mid-afternoon, those who are interested will break into litigation and organizing strategy groups, which will focus on concrete next steps to push for greener and more economical alternatives to coal-by-wire.
Detailed agenda and schedule to follow.
