Minnesota Center for Environmental Advocacy hits it out of the park! Yes, they couldn’t have done a better job, and y’all know I’m no fan of MCEA. MCEA’s positions on transmission and coal gasification have been horrible, guided by funding for promotion of transmission, and limitations on coal gasification to only addressing CO2. Right now, MCEA’s doing one hell of a job! Really!

Here’s the good news, took a while, color me slow on the uptake, but here it is. MCEA has sued the City of Lakeville and the City of North Mankato about their deceptive, improper, and avoidant use of Alternative Urban Area Review (AUAR). It’s so well done — this is what advocacy is all about.

EVERY CITY USING AN AUAR TO SNEAK IN A DATA CENTER WITHOUT ADEQUATE ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW NEEDS TO BE SERVED WITH A COMPLAINT LIKE THIS!

For your edification and reading enjoyment:

Ya made my day, MCEA!

Here’s a link to help them ramp up this work – specify “data center” to direct it there: DONATE
