EPA announced the availability of draft DOE/EIS–0372, which analyzed the potential environmental impacts of a proposal to amend Presidential Permit PP-89 for the Bangor Hydro-Electric Company Northeast Reliability Interconnect, an electric transmission line that would originate at an existing Orrington Substation, near Orrington, Maine, cross the U.S.-Canada border near Baileyville, Maine, and continue into New Brunswick, Canada. The amendment would change a previously selected route.
