Travis Wilson isn’t opposed to change in his southeast Kansas community. But for his 160-acre plot of land, there sure has been a lot of it in recent years. First came arrival of wind development in Allen County, dotting the landscape around Wilson’s property with turbines — a decision he respects, even though it means his house “sounds like a washing machine” if windows are open. But now the southern part of his land is directly impacted by a new kind of development: a proposed 89-mile transmission line from Wolf Creek Nuclear Power Plant in Burlington to another power station near Joplin, Mo.
