plant; transmission line; definitions

HB 2485 amends Arizona law to define key terms related to power plants and transmission lines, such as specifying that a "plant" must be a thermal, nuclear, or hydroelectric generating unit of at least 125 megawatts and a "transmission line" must be a high-voltage line (115,000 volts or more) over one mile long with five or more structures. These definitions clarify regulatory requirements for new electric infrastructure, ensuring consistent application in siting decisions. The bill directly affects utilities, local governments, and citizens involved in the approval process for major power facilities.
