Transmission Company Victoria (TCV) today released the preferred easement for the Victorian section of the VNI West transmission project.
In a release, the Australian Energy Market operator company said that over the past four weeks, TCV’s dedicated Landholder Liaisons have contacted landholders within the preferred easement as a priority, to listen to concerns, answer questions about the impact of the easement on their land and discuss the next steps.
"The process to refine the initial 50km wide area of interest to a 2km draft corridor and now a 70m preferred easement has been shaped by 18 months of consultation with communities and individual landholders, along with field studies and technical and engineering assessments.
"The preferred easement is around 70m wide along most of the route, subject to regulatory assessment under Environment Effects Statement (EES)"
