PSEG proposes 70-mile power line in Maryland to boost reliability, faces public opposition.

The Piedmont Reliability Project, a proposed 70-mile power line across Carroll, Frederick, and Baltimore counties, was discussed at a town hall hosted by FOX45 News. The Public Service Enterprise Group (PSEG) has applied for a necessary certificate from the Maryland Public Service Commission. Public hearings will be held to address concerns and gather input. PSEG and PJM, a regional transmission organization, argue the project is crucial for power reliability, while it faces opposition from local residents and environmental groups.
