It’s all connected — and here’s the eastern part of the 765kV line across Minnesota, from South Dakota headed east across the Mississippi into Wisconsin — the western web comments were due Monday:

Today’s inbasket had good news for us on the eastern end, where they want to follow a 161kV line across SE Minnesota’s Driftless region — the good news is that “Gopher to Badger” backed off of its asinine “informal process” and:
Applicants request that the Commission stay the Certificate of Need Application and process it jointly with the Route Permit Application, which Applicants intend to submit this fall.
Informal process?!?!?! How stupid do they think we are?
Good, they’re being reasonable. Did they really think they could get away with “informal process” that does not exist?
Anyway, Reply Comments were due Wednesday and here is ours, NRG and NO765MN:
