    • 2000, Arrowhead-Weston Electric Transmission Line Project: Final Environmental Impact Statement:
      The span length for the proposed line design is 800 to 1,000 feet, thus many wetlands less than 800 feet in width could likely be spanned. For 115 kV construction, the maximum spannable distance is 800 feet.
