 This is a Google Earth view of the term project study area. The study area is inside the pink boundary. And one of your tasks for the term project is to locate three alternate routes through the study area between the start point and the end point. To complicate the route selection you will need to consider the impacts on the built and natural environment. These impacts include buildings. You can see the buildings and their building footprints. Avoidances. Let me click on that for you. You have the avoidances. Avoidances include such things as schools, daycare centers, churches, cemeteries, and things of that nature. The next thing that you have to take a look at will be large building footprints. Obviously we don't want a transmission line going over a large building. Then we'll take a look at the conservation areas. And the conservation areas include a number of things. They include lakes, wetlands, and in this instance they also include some floodplain areas. So then your mission is to locate three alternate routes and then select the best route that minimizes impacts to the natural and built environments. Good luck! The second video will give you a unique look at a fly-through of an example alternative route to give you a feel for the obstacles and questions you could encounter with your route selection.
