Big things are happening in Harrison County, and the new Harrison County Community Hospital (HCCH) facility is just the beginning of a transformational era for Harrison and surrounding counties.

Activities associated with the construction, interconnection, and operation of the Project would take place within the approximately 20-acre Project area, and the effects of the summation of these actions are analyzed in this Environmental Review.
