Lincoln Park-Riverbend 138-kV Transmission Line Project II (Case No. 23-0346-EL-BTX)

The Lincoln Park-Riverbend 138-kV transmission line project proposes to construct an approximately six-mile 138-kV transmission line that will extend from the existing Lincoln Park Substation to the existing Riverbend Substation. The Project also encompasses expansion of the Riverbend Substation to accommodate conversion of the 138-kV straight bus to a four-breaker ring bus, which is within the ambit of the Ohio Power Siting Board’s jurisdiction. The project will be located in the cities of Youngstown and Campbell in Mahoning County, Ohio. Accounting for sensitive attributes in the vicinity of the Mahoning River, ATSI has refined route alternatives that optimally avoid sensitive locations and incompatible land uses.
