The Project is a high voltage direct current (HVDC) electric transmission line that will provide electricity generated by renewable energy sources in Canada to the New England electric grid. The line will run from the Canadian border at Alburgh, Vermont, to Ludlow, Vermont, along underwater and underground routes. The approximately 56 miles terrestrial portion of the transmission line will consist of two 5-inch diameter cables buried approximately four feet underground within existing public (state and town) road rights-of- way (ROWs). The cables will be installed within a railroad ROW for approximately 3.5 miles in the town of Shrewsbury and Wallingford.

INTRODUCTION The Rutland Regional Planning Commission (RRPC), in conjunction with VTrans and the Addison County Regional Planning Commission, is managing the Vermont Route 22A Corridor Study. RRPC created a Corridor Technical Advisory Committee consisting of representatives of the two regional planning commissions, VTrans, and the four towns associated with the Vermont Route 22A Corridor Study Area: Orwell, Benson, West Haven, and Fair Haven. To assist the actual work of much of the Study, the RRPC contracted with Broadreach Planning & Design and Stantec Consulting Services, the Study Team. Vermont Route 22A (Route 22A) runs north south along the western side of the State of Vermont starting in Ferrisburgh on its northern end. It heads roughly straight south until it crosses into New York State at the southern limits of Fair Haven. The Study Area extends from the Route 22A intersection with Vermont Route 73 (Route 73) in Orwell as the northern terminus and ends in the south at the New York State line. The Study Area extends east west approximately one-half mile on either side of Route 22A, but extends farther as appropriate to include the influences of Vermont Route 30 (Route 30) and US Route 7 (Route 7), other nearby north south routes.

  • Middlebury Public Tree Inventory Report
    Middlebury Public Tree Inventory Report Prepared for the Town of Middlebury by the Vermont Urban & Community Forestry Program and the University of Vermont Land Stewardship Program February 2015 Acknowledgements This report was developed by students from the Land Stewardship (LANDS) Field Semester program and subsequently edited and supplemented by Vermont Urban & Community Forestry Program (VT UCF) staff based on field work conducted for the Town of Middlebury, Vermont during the fall of 2014. We would like to thank Eric Blair, Middlebury’s Town Planner, for providing a wonderful tour of Middlebury, support, and information while we worked on this project. About the Vermont Urban & Community Forestry Program The field of forestry management is not confined to the natural areas and forests of Vermont, but extends to the urban and rural spaces where trees play important roles. The trees in public parks, along roadsides, town greens, and municipal forests compose our urban and community forests and merit careful stewardship. The Vermont Urban & Community Forestry program is a collaborative effort between the Department of Forests, Parks, & Recreation and the University of Vermont (UVM) Extension. The program provides technical and financial assistance as well as educational programs and products for the management of trees and forests in and around Vermont communities. The mission of VT UCF is to lead citizens, businesses, and governments in understanding the value of urban and community forests and to promote civic responsibility for and participation in the stewardship of these resources for this and future generations. Since 1991, a small staff and a twenty-member advisory council have guided the program.
