NELIGH, Neb. (AP) — Work is scheduled to begin this week on a power line project in northeast Nebraska.

Nebraska Public Power District officials say a 345,000-volt line will be run 39 miles from a substation southwest of Hoskins to a new substation northeast of Neligh (NEE’-lee). Also, four 115,000-volt lines will be run from the new substation to existing lines.

Project manager Jedd Fischer warns motorists that a helicopter being used to string shield wire could be distracting.
