Sacramento Municipal Utility District Withdraws from TANC’s Transmission Project
Sacramento Municipal Utility District has informed the Transmission Agency of Northern California (TANC) that it intends to with withdraw from TANC’s Transmission Project (TTP).
In light of this recent development, TANC has postponed all of its remaining public outreach meetings on the TTP scheduled during the month of July.
"This time will enable TANC and its members, the Western Area Power Administration (Western) and other government agencies involved in the planning process to evaluate their options and to define the next steps in the process," according to a TANC statement.
TANC believes it is important to keep the “public scoping” period open during this time. Allowing the scoping process to proceed will help determine where to put the transmission lines needed to ensure reliable and affordable electric service for the residents and businesses throughout northern California and to expand access to clean energy sources such as solar, geothermal and wind energy.
