USDA Rural Utilities Service prepared an EIS that evaluates the environmental impacts of constructing, operating, and maintaining a proposed transmission line and associated facilities in western North Dakota. DOE's Western Area Power Administration (WAPA), a cooperating agency, would modify its existing Williston Substation to allow a connection of the proposed new transmission line to Western's transmission system. Project information is available at http://www.rurdev.usda.gov/UWP-AVS-Neset.html.
