A little catching up to do. I got a new camera out in Washington, and started filling it up, but then when I got back I couldn’t find the USB cord, and once I did, I didn’t hide it and it disappeared, I figured it would show up in puppy output, well, close, I found it mangled in the living room doggy bed.\u00c2\u00a0 IT WORKS!<\/p>\n

September 27 started the CapX 2020 Fargo-St. Cloud<\/span><\/strong><\/a> road show, the search for DEIS comments (meetings, not hearings!). \u00c2\u00a0 I got out late, of course, so it was clear I wouldn’t be up to Barnesville for much of the meeting, so I went to Fergus Falls to check in and check the email before the hearing.\u00c2\u00a0 At the exit, I found the USFWS Prairie Wetlands Learning Center<\/span><\/a><\/strong>, and had the opportunity to meet with head honcho of the Fergus Falls Wetland Management District (USFWS)<\/span><\/strong><\/a>.\u00c2\u00a0 As I was driving up, I was noticing wetlands and thinking of transmission siting, and was curious about USFWS role in the Fargo-St. Cloud CapX 2020<\/span><\/strong><\/a> transmission line.\u00c2\u00a0 I picked up maps of the USFWS wetlands along the way, there are a LOT of them, and got them in the record later on the road show.<\/p>\n

It was a beautiful day, and I took some time to wander around, there were four school busses of kids there, loaded down with backpacks like they were camping for a week.\u00c2\u00a0 I had Kady with, but they don’t allow dogs, so she was stuck in the van.<\/p>\n

There are a lot of wetlands to get around, and I’d say this area presents a transmission siting “challenge.”<\/p>\n

Sightings at the USFWS Prairie Wetlands Learning Center in Fergus Falls:<\/p>\n
