Lindstrom requests Task Force extension
March 23rd, 2007
Xcel’s application for the Chisago transmission line is at the PUC, wtih the Certificate of Need and Siting dockets mixed into one. They’re trying to ram it through unexamined, setting up a Advisory Task Force with virtually no notice and having three meetings crammed into an eight day period — that’s not sufficient time for anyone to get the application, review it, and comment coherently. So we’ve filed a Motion for an extension to have a reasonable amount of time, rather than this farce they’ve instituted. Sure, they don’t want an effective Task Force like the last time, heaven forbid that local governments and the public should have an opportunity to participate in a meaningful way.
Lindstrom Motion for Extension
And with that report and appendices, you can see how it should be done.

For the dockets, go to www.puc.state.mn.us and then “eDockets” and then “Search Documents” and then search for dockets 04-1176 and 06-1667 .
