Project Review Comments
- Project Name
- Tri-State Crosspoint Substation 1041
- Description
- Tri-State Generation and Transmission Association, Inc (Tri-State) is proposing a new 230-kV substation that sectionalizes the existing 230-kV Lincoln – Midway transmission line in El Paso County. The Project is being developed to increase the load serving capability for Tri-State’s Member, Mountain View Electric Association (MVEA), related to substantial residential growth east of Colorado Springs. The current 69-kV system is served by two delivery points at Falcon and Calhan that are increasingly incapable of serving the system and cannot maintain voltage in a contingency situation. The Project is also being developed to improve system reliability for Tri-State’s Member, Southeast Colorado Power Association (SECPA). SECPA’s 69-kV Edison Delivery Point is sourced from MVEA at the Edison Tap, which is 17 miles away, and from Calhan which is 20 miles away - the extended 69-kV system increases exposure and impacts to the system from line faults.

No geologic hazards are present that would preclude the proposed Crosspoint Substation project (38.844, -104.242). The characterization of subsurface conditions and geotechnical recommendations in Terracon's Geotechnical Engineering Report, Tri-State Crosspoint Substation #3570, East of Calhan Highway, and West of North Lauppe Road, El Paso County, Colorado (Terracon Project No. 23245062, August 8, 2024) are valid. Provided Terracon's recommendations are adhered to, the Colorado Geological Survey has no objection to approval of AASI251. | 4/4/2025 2:51:25 PM | |

Thank you for sending USAFA the “Tri-State Crosspoint Substation 1041” project review request (File #: AASI251). As this project is in close vicinity of Bullseye’s flight training and activities, we request that the developer includes a noise notice and avigation easement. The instructions to complete these requests are attached in EDARP. Please note that USAFA would like to be informed of the future construction for the proposed MEVA and SECPA powerlines that were referenced in this application. | 4/3/2025 8:02:29 AM |
