SWEPCO is seeking authority ATTORNEYS from the Arkansas Public Service Commission to build a new 345 kV transmission line that will begin at the existing Northwest Texarkana station, less than one mile northeast of the city of Leary in Bowie County, Texas and end at the planned Turk station located approximately one mile east of the 7 79 South Second Street town of McNabb, Arkansas. You are being sent this notice because, Rogers, AR 72756-4525 according to the records maintained in the county courthouse, you own property which may be traversed by the transmission line. PH 479/636-0875 FX 479/636-8150 The map enclosed identifies various links, which comprise each of the 14 alternate routes. SWEPCO has proposed Route 2 as the proposed route. Route 2 is comprised of [inks A-A'-A"-F'-F"S-NN-NN'-OO-PP. If your land is

David R. Matthews 9 not located on any of those links, then the route of the transmission line Craig A. Campbell proposed by SWEPCO does not traverse you. However, at the hearing to be George R. Rhoads scheduled in this matter, the Commission has the authority to modify Edwin N. McClure SWEPCO's proposed route or to decide to utilize one of the other 13 alternate routes. Please note that the routes presented to Commission are the Larry J. Thompson the for complete line from the Northwest Texarkana in Texas to the Turk station in Mark T. Fryauf .n Arkansas. Thus, you are being notified in order that you may monitor these Mauricio A. Herrera proceedings and take whatever steps you feet necessary to protect your Sarah L. Waddoups interest. An electronic version of the map is available for closer viewing at C. ,Eric Vester www.swepco.com/gol345transrnission. Vicki S. Vasser Jesse J.

Re: SWEPCO's Application for a Certificate of Environmental Compatibility and Public Need - APSC Docket No. 08-0984 Dear Landowner:

Enclosed with this Ietter you will find a Notice of Filing of Application for Certificate of EnvironmentaI Compatibility and Public Need and a map showing the proposed and alternative routes. SWEPCO is seeking authority ATTORNEYS from the Arkansas Public Service Commission (APSC) to build a new 345 kV transmission line that will begin at the existing Northwest Texarkana station, less than one mile northeast of the city of Leafy in Bowie County, Texas and end at the planned Turk station located approximately one mile east of the South Second Street I79 town of McNabb, Arkansas. You are being sent this notice because, Rogers, AR 72756-4525 according to the records maintained in Bowie County, Texas courthouse, it has been determined that you own property in Texas which may be traversed PH 4 79/636-O875 by the transmission he. FX 479/636-8150 The map enclosed identifies various links, which comprise each of the 14 alternate routes. SWEPCO has proposed Route 2 as the proposed route.

David R. Matthews 9 Route 2 is comprised of links A-A'-A"-F'-F"S-NN-NN'-OO-PP. If your land is Craig A. Campbell not located on any of those links, then the route of the transmission line George R. Rhoads proposed by SWEPCO does not traverse you. However, at the hearing to be €&in Ai. McClure scheduled in this matter, the Commission has the authority to modify Larry J. Thompson SWEPCO's proposed route or to decide to utilize one of the other 13 alternate routes. Thus, you are being notified in order that you may monitor these Mark T. Fyauf. 0 proceedings and take whatever steps you feel necessary to protect your Mauricio A. Herrera = interest. An electronic version of the map is available for closer viewing at Sarah L. Waddoups www.swepco.comlgol345transmission. C. Eric Vester Vicki S. Vasser The specific location of the proposed line across any properties has not been Jesse J. Reyes determined at this time. When the specific line route is selected by the Commission and after the surveyors survey the exact line route and most of Kimberly R. Weber = the engineering on the line is completed, SWEPCO representatives will be Mary B. Matthews able to discuss with you the exact location of the structures on your property, if of counsel you are to be traversed. The links on the SWEPCO proposed route located in Texas are A, A', A", and - also odmiflod in Oklahoma F'. The alternate routes on the map enclosed also have other links that are v~koodmiltod in Missouri located in Texas. Even though this filing is being made with APSC, you have .also admilled in Toxos the ability to become involved in that process to make your views known. A subsequent application will also be filed with the Public Utility Commission of Texas (PUCT), but will focus on routing options in Texas once the possible point of interconnection between Arkansas and Texas is more defined in the APSC proceeding, If you have questions in regards to that filing, please contact Mr. Randal Roper at 51 2-481-4572.
