Virginia firm buys stake in Grant County wind project
Dominion, a major Virginia energy company, acquires a 50 percent stake in a $300 million Grant County wind farm near Mount Storm. The project, linked to NewPower Mount Storm LLC and Shell Windenergy, awaits West Virginia Supreme Court review after a circuit court ruling. The case faces objections from residents concerned about property values and housing growth. The court plans hearings between March 14 and May 22, as studies on wind power viability face delays. The project would dwarf West Virginia’s existing Wind Energy Center in Tucker County.

Cotton industry warns over herbicide resistant weed threat
Cotton growers face Palmer amaranth, a glyphosate resistant weed that can grow 6 to 10 feet tall and spreads across multiple states. Scientists call it a severe threat rivaling the boll weevil, potentially forcing older, harsher farming methods. In Georgia fields the weed has forced some cotton to be cut down and damaged picker machinery.
