ER No. 5366, which referenced BI No. 206 and was processed
in late 1988/early 1989, authorized the expenditure of $2,226,922
to construct approximately 7.7 miles of 230-kV single circuit
transmission line from the existing Turnpike substation to the
proposed Crane substation. The ER explained that the “ER will
provide service for the expected load growth and improve service
reliability to the area.”
A 1988 BI No. 307, approved in 1987, budgeted $1,530,000 to
construct the Crane substation, which consists of a 230-23-kV
line, one transformer, and a two feeder distribution substation.
FPL approved this BI because “The area adjacent to Palm City and
Martin Downs is presently being subjected to expansive
residential, commercial, and industrial development.”
ER No. 4512, approved in 1988, authorized the expenditure of
$111,245 to install a third regulated feeder position to the
Turnpike substation. The ER anticipated that construction would
begin on March 1, 1989. ER No. 5056, approved in late 1988/early
1989, authorized the expenditure of $240,928 to add a third 230-
kV line terminal to the Turnpike substation. The ER stated that
“The present 138kV network * * * will become inadequate to serve
load in 1989.”
A 1986 BI No. 246, approved in 1985, budgeted $5,860,000 for
a conceptual estimate to construct approximately 16 miles of
single pole concrete 230-kV line from the Andytown substation to
