One of the things I would like to see 3 done or addressed in the report is if the new indoor 4 switching structure can be shifted further north and 5 further west on the site plan, so it would get it 6 further away from the existing trees. 7 You know, and that would move it 8 further away from Prospect Avenue and Mount Pleasant 9 Avenue. 10 And I can show that -- what I'm talking 11 about on the PSE&G site plan if you want me to share 12 my screen. 13 MR. TURTELTAUB: If he may share his 14 screen, I will ask, Mr. Chairman, if he can share his 15 screen, will you let him set up for that. 16 CHAIRMAN NEUER: Yes. 17 Diana or Megan, whoever, please allow 18 Mr. Blanton to share his screen. 19 MS. BRILL: Yes, he should have that 20 capability already. 21 CHAIRMAN NEUER: Do you see it, 22 Mr. Blanton? 23 THE WITNESS: Yes, I do. 24 Okay. I hope you can see my screen 25 now. Page 123 1 further away from all the trees on the east side of 2 the site and the south side of the site, which we've 3 also heard testimony that these are some of the 4 larger trees that are being slated to be removed. 5 And again, I don't know the condition 6 of the trees, but this would possibly save some of 7 those trees if they are healthy trees. 8 You know another thing that, as I've 9 looked at this in the last several days, you know, 10 okay, what PSE&G is doing is they're coming out of 11 this transformer and running bus work out there 12 showing here to the switch gear. They also come out 13 this transformer with bus work down here 14 (indicating). 15 And then out of this transformer at the 16 top with bus work that comes all the way down in 17 here. And that -- 18 BY MR. TURTELTAUB: 19 Q. Now, you're using a term -- you're 20 using a term "bus work." 21 Can you just explain to the Board what 22 bus work is so everybody understands in the public as 23 well? 24 A. Okay. Bus work is just aluminum bus or 25 pipe bus that's installed on a type of structure. Page 122 1 MS. BRILL: Yes. 2 CHAIRMAN NEUER: It's up on mine. 3 MR. TURTELTAUB: We can. 4 CHAIRMAN NEUER: I don't know about 5 everybody else, but I can see it. 6 MR. SCOTT: Yes. 7 BY MR. TURTELTAUB: 8 Q. Mr. Blanton, everybody can see your 9 screen, so -- 10 A. Okay, very good. 11 Okay. Here is the new switch gear that 12 Public Service is putting in. What

. 6 MR. SCOTT: Yes. 7 BY MR. TURTELTAUB: 8 Q. Mr. Blanton, everybody can see your 9 screen, so -- 10 A. Okay, very good. 11 Okay. Here is the new switch gear that 12 Public Service is putting in. What -- 13 MR. TURTELTAUB: And just for -- so 14 everybody can see, and just to make sure everybody 15 can see it, there's an X that's down to the bottom 16 right-hand part of the screen. 17 If anybody is having a problem seeing 18 it, please let me know, but that's where his cursor 19 is. 20 THE WITNESS: And I made the cursor 21 oversized so it's easier for me to see it also. 22 Here's the new equipment that PSE&G is 23 putting in. If this equipment could be slid further 24 north this way and further west this way to put it 25 more in this area (indicating), it would get it Page 124 1 And what their bus work looks like is -- this is 2 their bus work running through here (indicating) that 3 they're proposing to install. And they've got 4 supports on a regular basis to maintain that bus work 5 so it doesn't sag and doesn't fall down. 6 Q. Okay. 7 A. Okay? 8 Q. Now, you -- you were along the right 9 side of the drawing there and I'm sorry to interrupt 10 you. 11 A. Okay. Okay. You all understand? You 12 follow? 13 And then they got bus work coming down 14 to here that comes into here (indicating). 15 The other thing that, I don't know if 16 they considered because it's not in the report that I 17 -- any of the reports that I have seen, is could this 18 switch gear be moved up into this area? 19 Because they have already got slated to 20 remove some trees up in here (indicating). 21 And again, that would preserve these 22 larger trees down in here (indicating), you know, in 23 the south and east side of the property if those are 24 healthy. 25 Not knowing the condition of the trees,
