What every Texas private landowner should know about electric transmission lines
The July 2009 issue of Texas Wildlife features an article regarding electric transmission lines and what every Texas private landowner should know about the issue from a legal, public policy, and economic standpoint. 
The exceptional article by Lorie Woodward Cantu drew a considerable amount of pre-publication attention. Several interest groups, community organizations, and commercial media outlets requested a copy of the article for their use and distribution prior to the magazine's printing and mailing. TWA granted permission for such use. All landowners can benefit from the knowledge and awareness that the article provides.
The three most current issues of Texas Wildlife are available on this site in a unique flex-page electronic format. The three issues are available here.

TWA joined other members of American Wildlife Conservation Partners in a June 29 letter to U.S. Sens. Max Baucus and Saxby Chambliss, co-sponsors of S. 1348, thanking them for their leadership and efforts on the important issue. TWA has encouraged U.S. Sens.
