MARL Project Sparks West Virginia Divide

MARL Project Sparks West Virginia Divide

Published 8 hours ago
Description

A massive 100-mile power line, the Mid-Atlantic Resiliency Link, is racing through West Virginia—promised to boost grid reliability and cut costs, but locals are furious. Developers say delays mean higher prices and economic harm, while opponents like West Virginians Against Transmission Line Injustice argue the process is rushed, unfair, and ignores community voices. Residents fear their land, forests, and scenic spots like Cheat Lake are being sacrificed for Virginia’s data centers, with little say in the matter. This isn’t just about electricity—it’s about who gets to decide the future of their homes and landscapes.
