Public Service Commission grants final approval to JETx transmission line

The North Dakota Public Service Commission has granted final approval for the 92-mile JETx high-voltage transmission line, developed by Otter Tail Power and MDU Resources, spanning Dickey, LaMoure, and Stutsman counties. The project faced significant opposition from landowners concerned about property rights and the line's potential use for data centers, with many of these concerns falling outside the commission's jurisdiction. Opponents have a legal challenge pending before the North Dakota Supreme Court.
