The public has a say on a proposed wind project near Glenns Ferry. Through November 25th, the Idaho Public Utilities Commission will be taking comments regarding a proposed sales agreement with Idaho Winds Llc.
The project is located about six miles northwest of Glenns Ferry in Elmore County. The company wants to construct and operate a 21-megawatt wind facility that will be known as the Sawtooth Wind Project.
The 20-year contract consists of Idaho Power paying the posted rate of $75.45 per megawatt hour during months of normal demand in the first full-year of the contract or 2013.
The price will gradually increase after that. Comments can be sent through email - mailed or faxed.
