The Antelope Valley Station to Neset Transmission Project

White Paper No. 1 of the Center for Heritage Renewal gathers together the center's submissions to regulatory agencies pertaining to a proposed 365kV power transmission line to be built across the historic site of the Battle of Killdeer Mountain, 1864. On September 4, 2013, the center informed the North Dakota Public Service Commission that submissions to the PSC by Basin Electric were flawed in that they failed to note the proposed transmission line transected the most significant historic site in North Dakota. An expanded submission to the Rural Utilities Service on February 3, 2014, explored the deliberate suppression of knowledge of the Killdeer Mountain Battlefield site by proponents of the transmission line. The center argues for remanding the transmission line proposal back to the public service commission for sworn testimony.
