SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Basin
Electric proposes to construct and
operate a (maximum net rating) 385 MW
(422 MW maximum gross) base load
coal-fired power plant and transmission
line interconnection near Gillette,
Wyoming. Basin Electric proposes to
construct a facility in this area due to
the proximity of the fuel source in the
Powder River Basin (PRB) and delivery
of the power to its membership. Basin
Electric is requesting RUS to provide
financing for the proposed project.
The transmission line would consist
of approximately 130 miles of 230kV
transmission line that will connect the
Hughes Substation east of Gillette,
Wyoming, to the Carr Draw Substation
west of Gillette and a proposed
substation northeast of Sheridan,
Wyoming. The proposed schedule
developed by Basin Electric would
place the transmission line in operation
by the end of 2008, while the generating
facility would be commercially
operational by 2011.
Alternatives to be considered by RUS
include no action, purchased power,
load management, renewable energy
sources, distributed generation, and
