Milton Young 3
From Global Energy Monitor
This project is under evaluation by the sponsors, but no permit applications have been submitted.[1] According to the Sierra Club, project sponsors are rumored to be planning on submitting an air quality permit application in 2008.[2]
In June, 2008, the Bismarck Tribune reported that Minnkota Power Cooperative would mothball plans for the plant until 2026.[3] In the meantime, the company has agreed to an arrangement with FPL Energy under which Minnkota will receive 99 MW of peak output from FPL's wind farm in Cavalier County, ND.[4]
