Tri-Lakes Reliability Project
NYPA has announced progress on initial plans for the
installation of a new power line aimed at improving electrical service
in the Tri-Lakes Region of Lake Placid, Saranac Lake, Tupper Lake and
the surrounding communities.
Under an agreement unveiled in November 2004, the Villages of Lake Placid and Tupper Lake, NYPA and
Niagara Mohawk, a National Grid Company, are working together to improve
the regional electric system and reliability problems caused by winter
weather and increased electric use.
