Mo Farm Bureau on PSC ruling

The Missouri Public Service commission has denied Clean Line Energy the use of Eminent Domain power for its Grain Belt Express Powerline.

The decision is supported by the Missouri Farm Bureau and has been a priority of the organization. Farm Bureau president Blake Hurst says, they “ARE concerned by issues raised by some commissioners who expressed disappointment in a related court ruling requiring consent by all affected counties.”

Missouri Farm Bureau will seek to strengthen protections restricting the use of eminent domain power.

Grain Belt Express has proposed a wind energy transmission line that runs from western Kansas to Missouri, Illinois, Indiana and neighboring states.
