I'm sure the data is out there somewhere, but looking at the NDIC GIS map, the 7.5 sections would most likely be:
- sections 25 - 27/T153N-R101W
- sections 34 - 36/T153N-R101W
- section 6-T154N-R100W
- and section E2 of 1-T154N-R101W
Highway "2&85" pretty much runs up the middle of these sections, with commercial activity already in place along the highway.
another project in the works west of Williston where Basin electric is currently building a 45mw peaking plant (power station)...they are now requesting for a permit to build 2 more adjacent to the one under construction west of WIlliston. The filing is listed below for the 2 new peaking plants.

I originally posted that story November 28, 2012, assuming it is the same proposed power plants:

I believe the 2 you posted for the Lonesome Creek Stations west of Watford City. They permitted 2 more to be built adjacent to the current. The ones above are in Williams county (Pioneer stations) one is currently being constructed across the highway(Grenora road) west of Williston, from the new State Line 1 & 2 gas plants under construction. This area along the Grenora road will now be home to 2 gas plants (stateline 1 & 2) and 3 gas powered peaking plants Pioneer 1, 2 & 3.
ReplyDeleteThank you for clearing that up. Information overload, for some reason, today. Incredible, isn't it? The activity simply doesn't stop.
