I attended a community meeting for this line in 2017, was that project completed?
In 2017, Hydro One completed a Class Environmental Assessment and hosted Community Information Centres for the Burlington to Westover Transmission Line Refurbishment Project. This project involved the line refurbishment of Circuits B5C and B6C between Burlington Transformer Station (TS) and Harper’s Junction (JCT) and the line refurbishment of Circuit B5C between Harper’s JCT and Enbridge Westover Customer Transformer Station (CTS).
The refurbishment work between Burlington TS and Harper’s JCT was completed in February 2019. The refurbishment work between Harper’s Junction and Enbridge Westover CTS has not been completed except for the priority repair of 11 structures in 2020 and five structures planned for priority repair in 2021.
Since completing the Class Environmental Assessment for the Burlington to Westover Transmission Line Refurbishment Project, Hydro One has determined that additional structures will require refurbishment (up to 90 compared to the original 30). Therefore, Hydro One is now initiating a new Class Environmental Assessment (EA) for the Harper Corners to Westover Transmission Line Refurbishment Project to take into account the additional structures that require refurbishment.
