AEP Ohio representatives plan power upgrades in Morgan County. The upgrades improve electrical reliability by replacing deteriorating wooden poles with modern steel poles. Crews expect construction to begin spring 2025 and conclude late 2026.
The Grace - North Muskingum Transmission Line Rebuild Project involves:
Company representatives plan to rebuild the line in or near its current location to provide the utility with access needed to safely build, operate and maintain its power lines while updating, supplementing and obtaining new easements where necessary. Easements are property rights that provide the utility with access needed to safely build, operate and maintain its power lines.
Spring 2024: Company representatives continue to work to engineer the line rebuild. As the project develops, project members plan to communicate any necessary changes to impacted landowners and make updates to this website.
The project involves the use of steel H-frame and 3-pole structures.
