KS SB266

Creates new category of "high-impact electric transmission line" defined as any line at least 10 miles in length carrying 340 kilovolts or more of electricity

Requires legislative approval via concurrent resolution before construction of high-impact transmission lines, in addition to existing State Corporation Commission siting permit

Electric utilities must notify the legislature within 30 days after receiving a siting permit, including project description, proposed route, reason for the line, and copies of the application and commission order

Legislative inaction does not constitute approval — failure to adopt a concurrent resolution within any timeframe cannot be construed as granting permission to build

Amends K.S.A. 66-1,177 and 66-1,178 governing electric transmission line siting permits and definitions
