The title is a bit of a misdirection, it is an electric transmission line, though it is going to be used to liquefy natural gas and power some mining operations in the area. The fact it is a power line seems to be downplayed in the first few paragraphs.

The maps shows that it is in large part within the area of the existing transmission line. So an EA might not be as crucial as a transmission line to a new area.

That all said, I am a little concerned by a lack of transparency and record of scant violation enforcement from the regulator. Fossil fuel companies ought to pay an appropriate price for infrastructure that will largely benefit themselves.
