Arkansas' delegation denounces approval of clean-energy project set to cut through state
March 25, 2016
Members of Arkansas’ delegation Friday issued a joint statement condemning the approval of a clean-energy project that is expected to cut a path across the state's Ozark Mountain, River Valley and Delta regions.
The U.S. Department of Energy earlier in the day said that its agency would be participating in Houston-based Clean Line Energy Partners' Plains & Eastern Clean Line project, which is expected to “tap abundant, low-cost wind generation resources.”
Friday's announcement also marked the completion of a department review into the electrical line plan.
