North Rockland residents and others concerned about a proposed power project can come out starting today to three open house events. Transmission Developers plans to extend its Champlain Hudson Power Express, also known as CHPE, a high-voltage electric line from Hydro Quebec in Canada to ConEd in Queens, with the promise of becoming a source of clean energy for New York.

The first of the three “Open House” meetings is tonight (May 22nd) at the Haverstraw Center on Broad Street. The second one is tomorrow (the 23rd) at the Congers Community Center on Gilchrest Road, and the third one is on Wednesday (the 24th) at the Roh Building in Stony Point. Each meeting is being held from 5:30 to 8pm. For more information about the project, visit https://CHPexpress.com.
