MEAN board of directors votes to move forward with Wind Project — Nov. 15, 2001

The MEAN board of directors unanimously approved the development, construction and operation of a wind generated energy project in Kimball County, Neb., at the Nov. 27, 2001, board meeting.

The board of directors voted to move forward with the Kimball Wind Project to develop up to 20 wind turbines. The vote enabled MEAN to continue efforts to obtain an authorization to construct, pursue the project design and determine an exact location.

The board also authorized signing a Letter of Intent with the Tennessee Valley Infrastructure Group (TVIG) to negotiate and execute a contract to develop the project.

The vote was prompted by the desire of MEAN and its participants to develop a long-term, economical renewable energy resource.
