This bill amends the Federal Power Act to restrict the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's authority to permit interstate electric transmission facilities. It prohibits FERC from issuing permits if a state entity with siting authority has denied an identical or substantially similar application, or is currently reviewing one. The bill also adds a requirement that proposed transmission projects minimize adverse effects on landowners and agriculture, adequately compensate for harms, and provide consumer benefits exceeding those harms. FERC must submit annual reports to Congress detailing actions taken under these provisions and their effects on landowners and farmers.
