Public Notice          Project Plans          Mitigation Plan

The applicant proposes to permanently fill 5.2 acres of palustrine wetland and 0.08 acres (862 linear feet) of other waters in order to expand their existing 230 kilovolt (kV) Legend Substation in Port Arthur. The project will involve clearing, grading, and filling of wetlands to accommodate the expansion of the substation pad, as well as the construction of associated laydown and parking areas. The proposed expansion will add approximately 8.27 acres to the existing substation footprint to support the installation of transformers, other electrical equipment, and parking. Construction will require the placement of approximately 32,300 cubic yards of fill material to elevate the pad to a height of 5 feet above sea level. The substation is needed to supplement Entergy’s recently permitted Legend Power Station and 230-kV transmission line (SWG-2024-00302).
