6 Broadcaster Press February 26, 2019 www.broadcasteronline.com South Dakota Puc Approves Construction Permit For Dakota Range Iii Wind Energy Project PIERRE, S.D. — The South Dakota Public Utilities Commission today approved the construction of the Dakota Range III wind energy facility and transmission line to be built in Grant and Roberts counties. The threemember PUC accepted a settlement agreement presented by Dakota Range and the PUC staff at its regular meeting in Pierre on Feb. 15. The decision allows Dakota Range III to move forward with plans to erect up to 42 wind turbines capable of collectively generating up to 151.2 megawatts of energy. The company will also build an 8-mile 345-kV transmission line associated with the project. The settlement stipulation accepted by the commission includes 42 conditions Dakota Range must meet during the construction, reclamation, operation and potential decommissioning of the project. Noise levels, turbine blade ice detection, aircraft detection lighting, and shadow flicker are among the details the conditions address. “I applaud the efficiency of the commission staff working with Dakota Range to vet, analyze, and negotiate the myriad components of this docket,” said PUC Chairman Gary Hanson. “There were no formal opponents to this project, so we did not have a contested-case evidentiary hearing. Those hearings significantly impact the activity required during the statutory six-month timeline for the PUC to decide wind energy cases,” he stated.
