In case you haven't heard, local residents of upstate NY are fighting plans for a private company, NYRI, to run a power line through upstate NY. For information on the plans, the NYRI website is here.
To get the map of where they are proposing to run the power line, click on "Proposed Transmission Route" and then "Route Ortho Maps". The maps are large, so follow the directions on the website, depending on the size of your computer.
"Section B" of the map shows that this power line is going to follow the Delaware River from Deposit, NY to Cochecton, NY. If you decide to look at some of the individual Ortho Maps of the proposed transmission route, you'll notice it's almost impossible to find a map that doesn't have the power line running over a creek tributary.
