SUGARLOAF TOWNSHIP, LUZERNE COUNTY (WBRE/WYOU) — A proposed PPL power line project near Hazleton, Luzerne County, has many residents fired up.
Many of them reached out to the I-Team, saying they have received little to no information about the project, which they say will destroy their quality of life.
"I would like PPL to respect the valley and respect the people of this valley," said Sugarloaf Township resident John Zola.
Zola makes that appeal to PPL Electric Utilities as a proposed power line project in the Sugarloaf-Conyngham Valley area moves forward.
