SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (KELO AM) - The Lincoln County Planning Commission on Monday considers Val-Add Services next request for a wind turbine farm around Beresford and Canton.
Nick Sershen with Val-Add says the company is seeking a temporary permit for five weather towers.
Sershen says no financial institution is going to fund any project unless proposers are scientific and sure what the revenues are going to be. He says the only way to get to the revenue is to have accurate measures of the wind. He says taking the measurements alone will take three to five years.
An earlier attempt for a full conditional use permit failed because the towers will be temporary.
