PPL plans to construct a two-mile high voltage transmission line corridor in South Whitehall Township, Pennsylvania, as part of the Orefield Project. The project aims to upgrade the electrical system and will run near residential properties, raising concerns among local businesses and homeowners regarding property values and potential land use changes. The Public Utility Commission (PUC) must approve the project, which could commence in summer 2026 and be completed by 2028.
