REARDAN - Tenaska and Cordelio Power, the companies looking to build two wind farms in Lincoln County, held community meetings in Reardan and Harrington this week to answer questions about the projects titled Hawk Creek and Lincoln County SW. Both projects have rather broad potential locations and are almost entirely dependent on which landowners sign on to the lease to have wind turbines built on their property, Tenaska project manager Monte Ten Kley said at the Reardan...
DAVENPORT - A couple's first Valentine's Day is special. For Pete and Dixie Knutson, it was also memorable, considering they lived amongst lepers in Liberia, West Africa. Dixie was just 17 years old when she left eastern Montana to attend Northwest College in Kirkland, Washington. She left behind her family and the cattle ranch she loved. Their home had no telephone, electricity or running water and was 50 miles from the nearest town. In Fall 1963, she arrived in Kirkland...

These have the economic power to rival or eclipse agriculture. Let that sink in a bit. Farming could take second seat to the concerns of power generation. The thought of seeing wind towers on the horizons of the county sickens me. Look around Colfax and see what I mean. One of the thoughts outside of the forum was why were they offering just a flat...
If you haven’t seen how ugly wind farms are you need to get out more. Go south to Colfax or Dayton and look at how they have destroyed the beauty of the rolling hills of the Palouse and breaks of the Tucannon in Whitman and Columbia counties, respectively. Even along the Columbia Gorge, do you see how it has destroyed the natural beauty. The only ones who win in this waste of dollars is the manufacturer of the turbine and the landowner upon which it sits. The losers are the rest of us who have to look at the eyesores and t...
