What damage? LOL The towers can be aesthetically designed (see FermiLab). US hasn't built any significant T&D infrastructure since the 1970's. I can understand the NIMBY stuff, but a line thru nowhere??
Proclaimer- so the thermal waste from nukes does what? Don't tell me global warning. LOL All steam turbines waste heat, no matter what the fuel, it's thermodynamics. Speaking of hot air...
Sad to say, commissioner Dian Grueneich had it right. This line was probably more to draw power from new gas plants in Arizona and from Palo Verde NGS - largest in the USA & I believe SDG&E is part owner.
