Plain-English Summary
This bill would require better coordination between energy companies and transportation agencies when planning new power lines and highways to avoid conflicts and reduce costs. It aims to streamline the process for building transmission infrastructure—the lines that carry electricity across the country—by having utilities and state/federal transportation officials work together from the start rather than discovering problems later. This would affect energy companies, construction firms, and communities where new power lines or roads are planned.
