Haviland-North DelphosTransmission Line

AEP Ohio Transmission Company, Inc., an affiliate of AEP Ohio, plans on improving the reliability of the electric transmission grid in Paulding, Putnam and Van Wert counties.

This project will be an approximate $20 million investment by the company.

The line runs between Haviland and Ft. Jennings through Blue Creek and Latty townships in Paulding County, Hoaglin and Jackson townships in Van Wert County and Monterey and Jennings townships in Putnam County.
