A coalition of citizen groups has filed an injunction in federal court asking that construction of the unneeded Susquehanna Roseland 500kV transmission line be halted within 20 miles of the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area.
The groups earlier filed a lawsuit against the National Park Service for its issuance of a permit to the power companies to destroy the park in contravention of the NPS's mission to preserve our irreplaceable natural resources.
Project owners PSEG and PPL have begun construction of the project in an all-fired big hurry, trying to get it built before legal remedies have been exhausted. Looks like they're very afraid that the lack of need for their project and the underhanded way they went about securing permits will be exposed. And it will, but the companies are hoping the power line will be built before anyone really notices or cares. Too late!
The petition asks for an expedited hearing. Will justice finally be done?
