PSC schedules May 23 special meeting to consider Falkirk permit easement addition
Summary
Commissioners agreed to hold a special meeting at 9 a.m. May 23 to consider a staff request to add roughly a half section of land to the Falkirk mine permit via newly acquired easements, contingent on no comments being filed by the May 19 notice deadline.
Public Service Commissioners set a special meeting for 9 a.m. May 23 to consider a staff request to add land to the Falkirk mine permit after staff said new easements have been obtained for about a half section of land.
Staff described the change as likely noncomplex but noted the statutory notice period allows comment through May 19. Because the commission had moved its regular hearing date earlier in the month, staff said May 23 would be the first available date after the comment period to approve the change if no comments are filed.
A staff member said the plan is to cancel the special meeting if comments are filed and a hearing is requested; otherwise the commission could take up approval as soon as May 20. Commissioners agreed to the May 23 date and set the meeting for 9 a.m. to accommodate staff and commissioners' schedules.
Next steps: staff will monitor the comment period through May 19, cancel the May 23 special meeting if any comments or hearing requests are received, and otherwise proceed to place the item on the May 23 agenda for formal consideration.
