Above is a photo of the 80' tower at Watergate, PSE&G intends to replace this with a 200' tower and dangerous high voltage power lines.
In the back of the photo you can see Historic Old Mine Road, this is the oldest highway in the entire Northern Hemisphere.
The current voltage running through these power lines is 230 Kv. What PSE&G and PP&L intend to run is 500 Kv plus the 230 Kv. That is enough power to "fry your hair" according to Superintendent John Donahue of the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area.
