Comments: Please maintain the untouched beauty of this site, Thorncrown Chapel is one of the most important buildings in the southeast and one of the only reasons 1 would have to bring my tourism dollars to the state of Arkansas. I would urge you to be bold in shaping the future for your state, don't make the same mistakes others have made across the Southeast.

Comments: In 1980, E. Fay Jones, noted architect and apprentice to Frank Lloyd Wright, unveiled the Thorncrown Chapel - a magnificent glass and timber construction located in the middle of a thicket near Eureka Springs, Arkansas. The chapel is one of the world's finest examples of organic architectwe and it has become a beloved monument for the people of Eureka and the people of Arkansas. I am against THE PROPOSED 345 KV TRANSMISSION LINE BETWEEN THE SHIPE ROAD STATION AND THE PROPOSED KINGS RIVER STATION AND ASSOCIATED FACILITIES.

Comments: Please reconsider the site planning for the a 48-mile-long high voltage transmission line across Northwest Arkansas that will encroach upon the Thorncrown Chapel's untouched landscape. If possible, consider other alternative routes that would preserve the beautiful terrain and natural environment surrounding the Thorncrown Chapel.

Comments: I understand the need to supply efficient power to your beautiful state of Arkansas. With that in mind, please reconsider destroying such st fantastic work of art such as the Thorncrown Chapel. I know you are not physically impacting the Chapel itself, however Thorncrown was designed and built specifically to demonstrate how architecture and nature can and should blend in perfect harmony. By destroying the forest around Thorncrown, you are destroying a piece of the chapel itself. Please keep in mind that this is the only Thorncrown Chapel in the world.

Corn m en ts: Jones Chapel is a landmark that is a part of its natural surroundings. This project has been widely published and studied by architecture students around the globe. Destroying the natural habitat around it would be an absolute injustice.

Comments: My fiance and I are getting married in this church next month. The thought of such a beautiful and untainted area being disrupted and possibly destroyed just kills us. I would love to come back to Eureka Springs decades from now and show my children and hopefully my grandchildren the beautiful place where we were manied. It would rip my heart in two to know that the animals that currently live there, undisturbed, would be driven from their homes. Please find a new way to achieve your dreams and please don't crush the dreams of those who already live there in order to get your way.

Comments: Myself, along with many other concerned, tax paying citizens a~ GREATLY opposed to this invasive and troublesome transmission line. * Thousands of tourists come to NW AR each year to be in the “Beauty” of the Ozarks! This line will kill the towist industry and put many local residents out of their homes. Besides obvious affects, the transmission lines will damage many areas and ow natural resources like: * One of the largest and oldest Great Blue Heron Rookery’s in the state; * Arkansas’ largest City Park, Lake Leatherwood; * The Kings River, Arkansas‘ premiere native Smallmouth Bass Fishery; * Cuts through the middle of Tree City, USA, Eureka Springs, NW Arkansas‘ largest tourist destination; * And many, many other special parts of our corner ofthe state. * directly impacting the future environments of ow children THIS POWER EMMUST NOT BE ALLOWED TO GO IN!!!

Comments: I am writing to express GREAT OPPOSITION to the proposed new SWEPCO electric lines. These new lines would directly impact the tourism industry in NW AFt as they would take away much of the BEAUTY that is here naturally. People would not be able to fish on the river anymore. They would not come here to see the fantastic views. Many personal properties would be destroyed. Jobs and homes would be lost. And to what avail? SWEPCO has not stated any reason why they need these lines. PLEASE STOP THIS FROM HAPPENING! ! !

Comments: The Thorncrown Chapel derives its impact and power from the site and context as much as by the architecture itself. Destroying the surrounding area would be laying waste to the materials with which it was built and it's link to nature. Don't do it.

Comments: As a Vice President of the Mildred B.Cooper Memorial Chapel in Bella Vista, the idea that a sister Faye Jones design is going to be encroached upon is disturbing, It's disheartening that such a beautiful structure formed by a national treasure, and an Arkansas legacy, could potentially be marred by the development of electrical power lines. Regardless of their necessity, we must work to preserve the treasures of Arkansas's greatest minds. These chapels are a part of that collection and we stand with our sister chapel to preserve the legacy that has been entrusted in ow care.

Comments: The Thorncrown Chapel is a unique, beautiful, historical structure and most of its charm comes from the surrounding natural environment. Visitors enjoy the chapel because they can sit inside while still enjoying the trees and other plant life outside. Putting up electrical lines will GREATLY detract from the whole areas appeal. It is a magical, sacred place that deserves to remain as is. Please find another place to put your lines so that this historical and tourist attraction can be enjoyed for years to come.

As an architecture student almost 25 years ago I made a pilgrimage not only to Thorncrown, but to meet and interview Fay Jones about it. To this day in my career, he is the measure of an architect. Gracious, humble, thoughtful, and deeply earnest about his work, and the beauty and elegance he brought to it. The humility in the Chapel's origins, and the eventual reverence which it achieved, speak to its importance in Architecture, adespecially the State of Arkansas. While I understand progress, efficiency, and the need for public infrastructure, I also know that this is not merely a building. It isn't even an animal habitat that could be relocated and repopulated with time and care. It is by definition unique to the world, and could never be replaced. To execute something that so adversely affects Thorncrown and its surrounds would be a deep and permanent loss felt well beyond your borders. Please reconsider the plan. Thank you for the fom.

Comments: Nature and the Power of Context: Save the Surrounding Landscape of Thorncrown Chapel Dear Madam, Sir or Whom It May Concern, Although a first generation native Californian, like so many others in our young state, my maternal grandmother's family is from Southwest Arkansas. I have yet to visit save for a distant cross- country road trip made when I was 7 or 8 years old. I remember the Ozarks, I remember the lushness of the land, and the hills, and the riot of trees that inhabit this part of the country. The richness of it. In my studies of art history and architecture, the emphasis of those that had the greatest influence over my sensibility and sense of things, including aesthetics and the built environment relative to the natural world and the world or worlds we create and inhabit, was the tenet that the best buildings reflect or mimic the land in which they're placed. This sense of place is particular, specific and altogether special. In the case of the Thorncrown Chapel, the architecture of which is admirable in it's own right, I would still argue that it is nothing, n-o-t-h-i-n-g, if it is bereft of the trees and native landscape from which it tooks it's cues, designed specifically for that particular place. Context is everything. Please do not deny the Thorncrown Chapel and the residents of this area of Arkansas, the many visitors and admirers who come to call to witness it (I hope to be one of them), the benefit of the very landscape that gives it it's power, it's relevance, it's significance and sense of place. Again, please, do not strip the land, the foundation and bedrock of this very special place. SEPC: find another way. Sincerely, Leah Emerson

Comments: As a matter of honor for that which we hold so dear in our great state of Arkansas, we cannot dlow *anything* to destroy the area of Thorncrown Chapel. We are the *natural* state. We hold this as a point of pride. Thorncrown Chapel is revered by so many, and to take that away hmour state, from its people, and from future generations would be a tragedy. There are many reasons we love this state, many reasons why people travel through and find themselves falling in love with it, and *this* is one of them. It cannot be subverted. It cannot be encroached upon. Leave us this. Leave it for those who love our area, love our state and its natural beauty. Leave it so that we can remind ourselves when need be why we are here. Leave it for our children and our children's children to experience it and fall in love with our area as we have. It is something that cannot be replaced,

Comments: Clearing more land for this transmission line should not be allowed. Why can't Carroll Electric and SWEPCO use the same cleared land? It is inconceivable that the two companies did not howof each other's plans, and it is only a little less conceivable that they did not try, o were unable, to work out a cooperative agreement regarding the muting of their power lines. This reeks of corporate malfeasance, and allowing this transmission line to go forward as planned reeks of poor stewardship.

Comments: Dear APSC, I have chosen to live in the Omks for 39 years because of the unadulterated natural environment including mountains, valleys, streams, rivers, and all the flora and fauna that live here. I am opposed to the proposed Swepco 345 kv high voltage power lines for many reasons. A few of those reasons are where these lines are mecessary for our small community, because of the destruction of the environment, the effect on tourism, and the herbicides Swepco myuse to maintain these lines which will effect the land and water creatures including humans! Sincerely, Jennifer Amussen Resident of Carroll County, AR 72632

Comments: To destroy the land and trees surrounding Thorn Crown Chapel for the erection of power lines and transfonners of would be an appalling action. Every mile before and after the Chapel is no better. I am sick and tired of seeing the woods and land that I grew up on be taken advantage of, raped of resources and stripped of trees, habitat and the animal life that goes along with it. It is 2013 for goodness sake! There is another way. Find it. Do not disrespect the community that you service, or the land that supports your very life.

Comments: Unbelievable that the Arkansas Board would even consider allowing such a thing to happen. The Power company has a lot of nerve wanting to destroy such an iconic structure that the public has grown to love. It would be an horrible injustice if they are alowed to do this just because they have the money and do not care what the are destroying.

Comments: Please take into consideration when working on the high voltage power line that Thorncrown Chapel is a piece of Arkansas and United States history. Thorncrown chapel is an internationally renowned exampIe of sustainable and environmental architecture. It is vital that the environment around it remain preserved and cared for by the public as this is an important part of Arkansas. It would be devastating to the naturd state for this piece of our culture to be damaged.

Comments: This chapel is one the great works of architecture in Arkansas and an inspiration to architects around the world. I 21111 sure this power line can be rerouted to preserve the grounds on which this great work stands, and which are part and parcel to its architecture and its idea of God existing all around us in the natural world. It would be a shame if "The Natural State" allows SWEPCO to proceed with its cmntrouting.

Comments: Thorncrown Chapel & it's surrounds must be saved. it is highly valued all over the world. Do we need to examine the IQ of persons making decisions to destroy this exceptional site? I suspect persons involved in such destruction wouldn't have much in computatiod powers. Rethink this issue & if need be, assess the persons involved in the process. How would history look up this decision if the major decision makers were in the 80's or 90's or worse - 70's. And an ethical + psychological examination of the persons invoked in the process would also be helpful. What if you had narcissists or psycopaths making key decisions. This is IMPORTANT. WISE DECISIONS MUST BE MADE

Comments: I am from Fayetteville, Arkansas, a graduate of Fayetteville High School and the University of Arkansas. Thorncrown Chapel is an Arkansas treasure and an important architectural structure. It is vitally important that we preserve such works of art, especially those, like this one, that are not only beautiful and unique, but also the work of one of Arkansas' Favorite Sons. The importance of Mr. Jones' work cannot be underestimated. When you have a world renowned person in a field from your state, you do not destroy their work, you preserve it for future generations.

Comments: Please do not approve the transmission line which would damage the splendor of Thorncrown Chapel. Arkansas' natural beauty and rich history is the heart of the state, and is a gem of the nation. I urge you to not approve the transmission line as proposed.

Comments: Having spent two summers at Opera in the Ozarks as a musician I visited the Thorncrown Chapel a number of times because of how tranquil it was and how beautiful the scenery was. If the proposed power lines were to go through this area I believe it will negatively impact one of the points of the chapel which was to alIow people to connect to God through the beauty of the surrounding nature. While not religious myself the sense of peace is undeniable when entering this chapel.

Comments: RE:SWEPCO CEPN Application - Docket 13-041-U Proposed Alternate Route 9 1 Segment AM I Write to you in two capacities. First, I am deeply concerned as an individual property owner and, second, as one of many neighbors who would be drastically impacted by route segment "AM" of the proposed alternate route 9 1. Specifically, route segment "AM"of alternate route 9 1, if approved and constructed, would be very close to my house and actually cross my private driveway. It would also severely impact at least seven homes in an area near Pivot Rock Road and Hyde Hollow Subdivision very close or within the City of Eureka Springs. In order to build our houses, the members of our neighborhood association went to the added expense of burying all of our utility lines in order to preserve the natural setting.

Comments: Please preserve the surrounding landscape. This beautiful and iconic architecture is renowned around the world and the draw of it's beauty is because of it's environment.

Comments: SWEPCO cannot be allowed to destroy a modern architechrral masterpiece. It wodd be a travesty to allow the degradation of a national treasure such as the Thorncrown Chapel. This building is an architectural masterpiece that is important to the future of architecture and design. The majesty of the Thorncrown Chapel is in it's seamless integration into the surrounding wilderness. Destroying the wilderness surrounding this modern masterpiece removes it context; the context gives rise to the genius of this design. Thorncrown Chapel should be celebrated as the treasure it is and allowed to remain surrounded by natural beauty.

Comments: With regard to proposed route 62/86,as shown on the SWEPCO website, this route would pass within 150 yards of our residence and be in our direct sightline. We already have a Carroll Electric easement on our property and the proposed line would cross those lines. How many easements do we need to have. What’s the health hazard of having 2 different transmisson lines within 150 feet of your house? Can’t be good.There exists adequate land on ow property for the-lines to be away from our house. Why can’t the lines be put there?

Comments: As a citizen of NWA, Eureka Springs, I 100% OPPOSE SWEPCO's request to destroy the natural beauty, environment, and sanctuary of our home with a hideous and unnecessary power line system. Not only would it destroy the natural beauty of the ozarks, it will interrupt and injure the peaceful wildlife we share our home with. Arkansas is the Natural state and the Ozarlcs is one of the most natural and beautiful places here, we would like to keep it that way! We won't let SWEPCO, who has horrible customer service to boot, destroy our land and place we call home. Sincerely, A concerned citizen and unhappy SWEPCO customer

Comments: Seriously!!?? This will NOT fly. They do not know us. We stand together. Remember who won in David vs. Goliath. SWEPCFO listed this routing criteria for it's evaluation of the proposed routes: Cost, health and safety concerns, engineering and technical difficulties, ecological and environment disruption, disruption to or interference with existing property uses, disruption to or interference with planned property uses and aesthetic displeasures. Everyone has said it much better than I can, I OPPOSE ALL TEIE ROUTES. I live on Blue Spring Road, close to Inspiration Point. Today I drove out of Blue Spring turning toward Inspiration Point and the parking lot was overcrowded with people. I pulled in and asked people what they were looking at - they said the massacre that would happen on the White River if the transmission lines were installed. The last time I saw this many people was at the last White River flood where this exact site was underwater. This is only one of multiple sites and human beings that would be affected on all the routes. To what purpose? We are not stupid. Represent us! ! Us, the citizens.

Comments: As a native of Little Rock, AR and the daughter of one of the pioneers of the University of Arkmas Medical Center (now UAMS), I would like to comment on the proposal that would not only impact the view of Thorn Crown Chapel but also affect the beauty of the surrounding area. There must be a way to reach a compromise that would not ultimately cause a negative impact on tourism in this part of Arkansas and the environment around the chapel. I have visited Eureka Springs at least three times and know what a gem the area is.

Comments: It has come to my attention that this Iine's easement would pass within 25 yards of Thorncrown Chapel. This cannot be allowed to happen. Thorncrown Chapel is one of Fay Jones' greatest works. The architectonic form done is unique enough to separate Jones' work from other more mediocre architecture, but its site is arguably one of its greatest features. While Jones did not design the natural landscape surrounding Thorncrown, he did design the chapel to sit unobtrusively within the landscape. If that landscape was destroyed for any reason, the chapel itself might as well be destroyed. Architecture is an experiential art form. Other than fulfilling the basic need of shelter, architecture separates itself from sculpture through experience, Moving through well designed architectural space is an extremely rare and unique opportunity, and Thorncrown Chapel offers that opportunity. However, much of the Thorncrown's experience involves the surrounding landscape. As an architecture student, I have been to and experienced many famous buildings designed by equally famous architects, but Thorncrown Chapel is the only architectural edifice that has ever exceeded my anticipated idealization. Its Unique site experience absolutely separates Thorncrown from other great works of architecture, and destroying its surrounding site would forever damage the grandeur of Thorncrown Chapel Please, do not allow this beautiful natural site to be destroyed. Arkansas prides itself as being "The Natural State,"and if that is more than just an empty motto, the state of Arkansas cannot allow its greatest symbiosis between architecture and nature to be destroyed. from: Online Comment Form < [email protected] - :- - -- ,--. -.

Comments: We need more places of serene spiritual beauty. Thorncrown Chapel is one of the most spiritual experiences in the region, if not the United States. Power lines, while necessary, can be located in other areas. SEPC, instead of encroaching on this area, should become stewards of this land and become heros to us all.

Comments: Beautiful architecture is not a building alone, but a structure within a certain setting. In the case of the Thorncrown Chapel, changing thew mtwd setting of the Chapel will destroy both the sacredness of the structure and its appeal as a landmark for tourism, commercial and social events, and the historical significance of the site, I urge you to strongly resist any efforts to alter the natural setting of the Chapel.

If you don't care about the environment with your chemical sprays or people's property (you've said point blank that that's not a consideration), SURELY you MUST consider the impact on business, and it would be devastating.

Comments: This is such a iconic and pretty location you cannot destroy it with these power lines cutting into the landscape. My fiance and I are planning our wedding there in April of next year and this proposal would completely ruin our experience and any other couple planning their wedding down there as well. Please do not ruin this magnificent place with the unnecessary building of these power lines. Kristi Rhude ... . , .. i., ,

Comments: Myself, along with many other concerned, tax paying citizens are GREATLY opposed to this invasive and troublesome transmission line. Besides obvious affects, the transmission lines will damage many areas and our natural resources like: * One of the largest and oldest Great Blue Heron Rookery’s in the state; * Arkansas’ largest City Park, Lake Leatherwood; * The Kings River, Arkansas‘ premiere native Smallmouth Bass Fishery; * Cuts through the middle of Tree City, USA, Eureka Springs, NW Arkansas’ largest tourist destination; * And many, many other special parts of our corner of the state. * directly impacting the future environments of our chiIdren Thank you so much for hopefully stopping this horrid transmission line and thank you for caring about property rights and ALL OF OUR natural resources.

Comments: The devastation that will accompany SWEPCO's new line through NW Arkansas is too much to ask the citizens to bear. Many people have bought land in this area of the state at great hardship so that they could be far away from industrialization. Now they being told that their land is being handed over to a big INC whether they like it or not. Swepco needs to find another solution to their desire to expand. Please stand up for the people of kknasas.

As the Natural State and a jewel of the Ozarks I can't believe anyone would even consider approving the preferred northern route which would permanently destroy many acres of pristine countryside and create a permanent eyesore.

Comments: We own a home and 63 acres in Benton Co. on segment AL of route 33. The proposed power line would traverse the north % of our property and we believe would have an extremely negative impact on its environment and value. We are located on the top of a mountain; about 114 of the land slopes to the south and 314 to the north, down to Poddy Creek. The north slope consists of an east and a west ridge with a hollow between. The ridges, hollow, and Poddy Creek bottom are covered with hardwood trees and are home to diverse wildlife and hundreds of varieties of native wildflowers, including Dutchman's Britches, Toothwort, Rue Anemone, Ginseng, Trillium, Sweet William, Omk Spidenvort, Jack-in-the-Pulpit, and Eastern Columbine. Wildlife we have sighted include red pileated woodpecker, wild turkey, fox, raccoon, possum, bob cat, and black bear. To be able to access this beautiful area we have constructed 2.5 miles of bails and frequently use them along with family and fiends. We also regularly conduct spring wildflower tours for the local garden club and others, The proposed power line would gut this area, greatly devaluing it for ow persond use and for future sale value. The power Iine and necessary access roads would divide our land into 3 or 4 segments, depending on whether one access road would be on our land or our neighbor's. The power line would also be in the north view from our house, lowering its aesthetic value as well. Every property owner we have contacted along segment AL will be similarly impacted. Most of us have purchased our property to enjoy the serenity and scenic beauty of the area. One neighbor built his home on land he grew up on and which his great-grandparents homesteaded. We question the necessity of a new power line when existing lines could be upgraded. This would save both the utility and Arkansas ratepayers a huge amount of money while sparing our environment. We will be participating in the process as interveners.

Comments: I would like to register my objection to the obtusive power lines proposed for North Bentonville. These lines would pass through a rural area, potentially threatening wildlife. It would also be extremely unsightly to a very rural and scenic area. The lines would have to cross through a park area, diminishing an area accessed by thousands. We do not want these lines through our area and suggest looking at other alternatives.

Comments: Dear People of Arkansas, Look you are Arkansas. YOU don't have much of anything going on in your state. You know that. We know that. Why on earth would you ruin one of your bright spots with something as ugly as a power transmission line? Don't you realize what people are already saying about your state? Why would you want to give them even more ammunition by mining this architectural gem and its surrounding landscape? Come on Arkansas even you aren't that backwards and unresponsive to beauty now are you?

Comments: Do not build near a historically significant architectural monument that is recognized the world over. Such a graphically recognimble building will translate all to well onto protest posters.

Comments: I strongly object to the building of this high voltage transmission line. Particularly objectionable is constructing this line through areas that will inflict the most environmental damage on the White River and Eureka Springs. In SWEPCO's petition to build this transmission line, my understanding is that they believe that additional capacity is needed to serve the needs of Cmoi County because of an increasing population. The study that they conducted is flawed based on the timing at which it was done. The study uses figures gathered prior to the recession. In my reading I have seen figures that the population of Cmol County has actually decreased by about 28% over the last 10 years a finding which hardly supports the claim of SWEPCO. I am interested in why no part of Missouri is impacted by the construction of the transmission line, especially since it appears that the residents of Missouri might stand a better chance of benefiting from its construction. My reading in this area leads me to believe that SWEPCO would rather deal with the Arkansas PSC than the Missouri PSC. I think that their motivation regarding this proposal deserves further scrutiny and explanation. Do the residents of Arkansas not deserve the same consideration and respect as the residents of Missouri? In broad terns, the building of this transmission line is purportedly to serve the needs of the future. If this is true, why are they using technology that has been around since the early 1900'~~At the very least they should conduct feasibility studies directed at using alternative technologies that match the actual needs with the most environmentally friendly way to provide that capacity. Furthermore, it is disappointing that they have not even mentioned the possibility of burying the transmission line. Although this methodology is new compared to the archaic method being proposed, it has been around for a number of years and has been successfully applied in other situations. In my opinion, and the opinions of others that I have spoken with, this option needs to be looked in much greater depth if SWEPCO's plan is forced upon us and the transmission line is built. Opinion and input should be solicited fiom groups such as the Sierra Club, Saving American Rivers and the Corp of Engineers to get a Mler understanding of what adverse effects can be expected, based on their past experiences in dealing with sensitive ecosystems. This needs discussion in an open forum where all the facts and options are laid out for the public to hear, understand and act on; as compared to this information only being divulged to a select few that make

Comments: It is wrong to destroy the beautiful surroundings of this beautiful chapel. There is another way to put in the transmission line without the destruction.

Comments: Any development that will result in the loss of Thorn Crown Chapel or its surrounding landscapelforest is just unacceptable. This is an iconic location, one that puts Arkansas on the map. Many ofmy friends were married there, and I love to visit this beautiful hideaway, I am sure they can find another location for this project.
