Code 24-2-11a (Application) to construct and operate the West Virginia portions of the MidAtlantic Resiliency Link Project (MARL Project), a new proposed approximately 107.5-mile, 500 kV transmission line that will traverse portions of Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Maryland, and Virginia, including a new 500/138 kV Woodside Substation to be located in Frederick County, Virginia, and other associated transmission facilities. The West Virginia portions of the MARL Project consist of approximately 58.9 miles of 500 kV transmission line and related facilities in Monongalia, Preston, Mineral, and Hampshire Counties (the West Virginia Portions).

Of this estimated amount, the current cost estimate for the West Virginia Portions is $482,706,000. These estimates include siting, engineering, construction, financing, administration, and legal costs.
