Join Braun & Gresham attorneys Patrick L. Reznik and Carly Barton on Monday, September 14th, for a 765-kV Transmission Line Landowner Update Webinar covering the latest developments in the Permian Basin Reliability Plan and what the Public Utility Commission of Texas' August 28th decision may mean for Texas landowners.

Together, the approved routes create more than 400 miles of new 765-kV transmission infrastructure extending from Central Texas toward the Permian Basin. For landowners located along the approved routes, the process is now entering a new phase: Condemnation. Oncor may begin moving forward with surveying, right-of-way acquisition, and easement negotiations as the projects progress toward construction.

In this session, we'll cover:
- The latest status of the 765-kV transmission projects
- The rights of landowners when facing property acquisition
- Practical steps landowners can take to stay informed and prepared
- What every landowner needs to know
