Administrator says Northland Reliability Project in final design; surveys to begin in eastern county
Summary
Administrator LeBlanc reported correspondence from Minnesota Power and Great River Energy stating the Northland Reliability Project (approx. 180-mile, double-circuit 345 kV line) is in final design and survey phases; staff expect company representatives to present to the board in February.
County Administrator LeBlanc told the board the county received a mailing from the Northland Reliability Project informing the county that Minnesota Power and Great River Energy are in the final design and survey phase for a roughly 180-mile, double-circuit 345 kV transmission-line project that will predominantly affect Morrison County’s eastern portion (District 4).
LeBlanc said survey teams will operate on foot, ATV, amphibious vehicle or truck as they enter the survey phase and that company representatives will come to a county board or planning session in February for a fuller update. “This mailing... informs us that their teams will be conducting surveys by foot, ATV, amphibious vehicle, or truck,” LeBlanc said. The chair thanked him and noted the board will expect GRE and Minnesota Power representatives for a future presentation.
