Confidential.
Summary of the Request
The Request alleges a series of negative impacts on the Requesters that might be linked to the Program, among which are:
• Impacts on the property of the Requesters, including a possible loss of property value.
• Risk caused by the proximity of transmission lines to homes, pedestrian traffic zones, and impact on the tourist landscape.
Regarding the non-compliance allegations with the Operational Policies, the Requesters caution on potential:
• Lack of inclusion in the decision process and public consultation, specifically regarding the discussions on alternatives to the electrical layout.
• Lack of access to information on documentation relevant to the Program, mainly about environmental and social impacts.
