As a County Board Supervisor, it is my firm belief that all opportunity must be given for new information to be considered -- giving taxpayers and ratepayers the benefit of doubt as to whether to reopen. The stakes for our County of La Crosse are too enormous otherwise. Our County has passed Resolutions questioning the need for these lines, whether demand is overstated and whether alternative methods are available. Please continue to listen, analyze and protect.

Who does this serve? Out of state business interests at the expense of the taxpayers. I think this is a cheap shot at exploiting what belongs to all Wisconsinites. Our natural landscapes will be marred by the presence of this project and the stray voltage will make people and animals sick.

Transmission lines of the nature we know them will become a thing of the past. Let's promove a clean, healthy environment using sustainable resources. The future of many generations is dependent upon what we do with fossil fuel consumption and distribution.

The US must pursue renewable and local energy sources that protect our environment and our state's scenic areas, not more "business as usual." This highly expensive project needs to be reviewed.

Don't sacrifice our land to get cheap energy back East. We need renewable energy, not more huge transmission lines!

Wisconsin has NOT invested in alternative energy as it should in its obligation to protect, Further, Wisconsin government has not been transparent in its approval of increased power to Wisconsin which is tied to thre Frac sand business here and Fracing across the country. We the people have a voice and influence. Do the right thing. We cannot eat, drink or breathe money. Destroy the land, destroy food producion.

Time for a new era. This antiquated distribution system must give way to decentralization and renewable energy sources.

Stop promoting the burning of fossil fuels before it is too late for all of us.

There is no public need only corporate greed for new transmission lines. Our health and environment are priceless. Private property and economic prosperity must be protected. Distributed renewable power systems are secure, reliable, safe, scalable, affordable, for all Today. Please reopen the docket and include distributed solutions

If you will make ratepayers pay for this, you must insure and open, honest process that gives full voice and authgentic responses to our concerns. Do not fail us!

This line is unneeded by people in Wisconsin & Minnesotta. It will destroy the landscape & increase leukemia in especially in children, while affecting bovine & wildlife with the electromagnetic waves produced while decresing property values.
