Officials for North Dakota and the Sioux Falls, S.D.-based company on Monday unveiled the $3 million plan to extend the multi-state Northern Plains Network from Minot to Williston. The project will be privately funded, said company president and CEO Pat McAdaragh.

``The Bakken Extension means western North Dakota will have access to greatly expanded data capacity, faster speeds and world-class telecommunications services,'' McAdaragh said.
One more positive from the boom. Again, not trivial.
