This report pointed out that overhead transmission lines have little effect on the natural environment,because they do not pollute the air, soil or water. Envirormental considerationswere incorporated into the selection process for the best route alignment and preliminary design for the 500 kV Ertan transmission and transformation systems. Considerable efforts were made to avoid populated areas, good farmland, industrial facilities, nature reserves, forests, historic landmarks, and scenic areas. The primary effects of trnmission lines on the environmentare the steel tower which occupy land and affect the landscape, and the felling trees duning construction. In addition, the corona and electromagneticfield caused by transmission lines may have hannful effects on people, domestic animalsand communicationlines. On the other hand, the natural environment can have adverse effects on tras=mission line planning, construction,operation and maintenance.Potential adverse effects include ice and snow sticking to the conductors, unfavorable geological conditions, and earthquakes. Three altemative routes were designed and evaluated, and on the basis of environmentaland other considerations,the middle altemative was chosen (see Figure A, DRW. No.50-XO5lk-X6-01).The chosen route was judged to have the least enviromnental impact of the three. The project complies with applicable environmentalprotection requirements. All the environmentalprotection departnents located along the transmission line route have taken part in the environmentalimpact preventiveresearch. 1.2 Scope and the Purpose of Environmental Impact Assessment The Ertan hydroelectric power station transmission project include 500 kV transmission lines and 500 kV transformation projects. The transmission line projects include Ertan to Honggou substationnear Zigong via Zhaojue (3 x 470 km transmission lines), Honggnu substation to Chenjiaqiao substation near Chongqing(one 162 kan transmissionline), Zigong to Longwangsubstation to the north of Chengdu( 2 x 190 kn transmission lines), Chenjiaqiao substation to Changshou substation near Fuling (one 100 kn transmission line). 500 kV transformationprojects include Panzhffihua,Zigong Honggou,Chengdu Longwang, Chongqing Chenjiaqiaosubstations as well as Zhaojue switching station. Adopted geneal planning for the Ertan 500 kV transmissionproject, and according to the l locatlcondition individual design and constructcvery 500 kV transmissionline and substation. Ertaii to Zigong H-onggou500 kV transmission lincs are the main transmissionlines, which will tTansferthe uower generated in Ertan hydroelectric station to the main cities whtichare locat-d in Sichuan basin. The length of the transmissionlines from Ezlanhydroelectric power station to Zigong Honggou500 kV substation is seventy fivc percent of the total transmissionline length of the project. Between
