MARL Line Hearing Stays On Track | Charleston News

West Virginia’s Public Service Commission has rejected a last-minute request to delay the hearing for the massive MARL transmission line, keeping the main evidentiary date on October 26th. Developers made five major route changes just weeks before the hearing, prompting staff to question the application’s completeness and even suggest pausing or scrapping the process. But the commission moved forward, signaling that late adjustments won’t derail the timeline — all parties must be ready to present their cases as scheduled. The 107.5-mile, 500-kilovolt line will stretch from Pennsylvania through key West Virginia counties into Virginia, making this decision a pivotal moment in its controversial approval journey.
