For Oncor Electric Delivery Company LLC (“Oncor”) to continue to provide safe and reliable electric service in the area, it proposes to construct a new single-circuit 345 kV transmission line to be built on single-circuit, monopole structures between the Oncor Redland Switch and the Longleaf Point of Intersection (POI), both located in Angelina County. The Oncor Redland Switch, located approximately 2.7 miles east of United States Highway 59 (US 59), will serve the proposed Longleaf POI located approximately 1 mile to the east-southeast of the Oncor Redland Switch. The Proposed Transmission Line Project is currently planned for completion in April 2026.

Voltage and Structure Type - The project includes a single-circuit 345 kV transmission line, constructed on steel monopoles structures.
