Eversource plans to expand its transmission corridor in Hampshire & Franklin Counties. They want to double the width of the corridor to 200 feet by clearcutting an additional 370 acres of forest!  We insist that the Mass. Executive Office of Energy and Environmental Affairs conduct its usual full environmental impact report, as is required by Massachusetts Environmental Policy Act. Eversource wants to waive the required environmental impact report, falsely claiming that there will be little impact. Let’s take action!
