Freeman asks Missouri Basin agency for rural power priority
Helena Mont 1 Minnesotas Gov Orville Freeman urged the Missouri Basin Inter Agency Commission to allocate fuller power to Minnesota REA cooperatives and municipal plants. He said current limits waste millions annually and that broader allocation would double savings as demand rises, aiding rural customers and potentially increasing flood control and irrigation benefits. A portable electric fan is mentioned as a supporting item for REA appeal.
