Whitley CountyTransmission Line Rebuild Project


Indiana Michigan Power representatives plan to upgrade the electric transmission network serving customers in Whitley County. The Whitley County Transmission Line Rebuild Project involves rebuilding about 15 miles of power line and rebuilding a substation to increase electric reliability in the area. Company representatives plan to rebuild the power line in the existing right-of-way, which may require acquiring new or updating existing easements. Easements are defined land rights that property owners grant the utility to allow for the safe construction, operation, and maintenance of the power line.
