We understand the concerns and fears you face as a landowner potentially affected by the Maryland Piedmont Reliability Project (MPRP). This page is designed to provide valuable resources, critical information, and reassurance that we, as a community, are united in protecting our land, rights, and way of life.
If your property is on or near PSEG’s chosen path for the MPRP, you will receive a letter from PSEG asking to negotiate an easement on your land to construct the towers and wires.
PSEG cannot use eminent domain to take your land at this time. They will not have that authority unless and until their Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity (CPCN) is approved, a process that will take months or years.
Public hearings with the Maryland Public Service Commission (PSC) are expected in 2025. We will share more information on this process in the coming weeks.
PSEG's permit before the MD PSC will be significantly weaker and less likely to get approved if they have zero easement agreements with landowners
We understand this situation brings stress and uncertainty, but you are not alone. Saying no to PSEG and delaying any negotiations works in your favor. Similar projects have been successfully defeated with far fewer engaged citizens than the Stop MPRP movement has mobilized. Many of our legislators are listening—some have signed letters of opposition, and others are drafting legislation to prevent future situations like this.
We increase the likelihood of stopping the MPRP by standing together and refusing to negotiate.
Together, we can continue to challenge this project and protect our land. Please fill out the form below to inform us if you receive a letter. Let's stay united and informed as we navigate this process. We will be providing additional information with more specific steps soon, and by providing your information below, you ensure we will be able to provide you with the resources you need.
We urge you to talk with your neighbors, especially those who may not have access to email or technology, to ensure they are aware of the MPRP and how it could affect their property. If they need assistance submitting their contact information, please help them provide it to us, or let us know on their behalf. Our goal is to make sure every impacted landowner is informed and supported, and we need your help to ensure no one is left out.
Please personally connect with your neighbors, particularly those who may not have a support system or family close by. Offer to be their resource for trusted information and connection.
