康涅狄格州州长因公众反对和安全顾虑, 要求延缓输电线投票。 Connecticut’s governor seeks delay on transmission line vote due to public opposition and safety concerns.

康涅狄格州州长内德·拉蒙特 （Ned Lamont） 要求推迟康涅狄格州选址委员会对 United Illuminating 使用高单极子建造一条穿过费尔菲尔德和布里奇波特的输电线路的计划进行投票。 Connecticut Governor Ned Lamont has requested a delay in the Connecticut Siting Council’s vote on United Illuminating’s plan to build a transmission line using tall monopoles through Fairfield and Bridgeport. 这一举动是在关注视觉影响、财产权和安全的地方官员、居民和社区团体普遍反对后进行的。 The move follows widespread opposition from local officials, residents, and community groups concerned about visual impact, property rights, and safety. 原提案涉及沿Metro-North走廊和通过国会街分局迁移115kV线路,原先因忽略历史和宗教遗址而被拒绝。 The original proposal, which involves relocating 115kV lines along the Metro-North corridor and through the Congress Street substation, was previously rejected for overlooking historical and religious sites. Lamont寻求其他解决办法,包括地下埋设线路,这是其他地方使用的一种更安全、更现代化的选择,尽管公用事业公司说,它需要花费5亿美元的客户费用。 Lamont seeks alternative solutions, including burying lines underground—a safer, more modern option used elsewhere—though the utility says it would cost $500 million in customer fees. 尚待作出最后决定,有可能进行进一步谈判。 A final decision is pending, with potential for further negotiations.
