I raised the Mesaba project transmission two years ago in Rochester, was told, “NO, NOT HERE, there will be someone at the NE meeting to address it.” OK, fine, so I go up to Duluth, well, Proctor, the same place the Arrowhead hearings were held, and there was no one there presenting on Mesaba, and when I tried to raise it, I was shushed, and when I refused to shut up, I was almost run out of town!

So, if you’re concerned about the Mesaba project and the associated transmission, better show up and let them know you want more informaiton.
