Regulatory process updates
We submitted our Proposed Route with the North Dakota Public Service Commission (PSC) by filing a combined application for a Certificate of Corridor Compatibility and Route Permit on August 8, 2025 and received approval on June 24, 2026.
There was one public hearing in each of the three counties the proposed transmission line will cross, Stutsman, LaMoure, and Dickey Counties.

Routing process
We've held meetings with agencies and the public throughout the routing process to gather feedback and information. This input was helpful for our team when developing the Proposed Route for the transmission line. After carefully considering the input and evaluating opportunities, constraints, permit requirements, and technical guidelines, our team identified a Proposed Route.
Study area (Spring 2023)
We identified a large study area that contained both substations.
Identify corridors (Spring 2023)
The JETx team analyzed the study area to identify corridors where construction may be possible.
Public open house #1 (Summer 2023)
A series of open houses were held in summer 2023 to introduce JETx and to gather input from stakeholders to help the team identify opportunities and constraints within the corridors.
Develop route corridor (Fall 2023)
The JETx team used the feedback received to continue to narrow the corridors to a proposed route corridor.
Public open house #2 (Fall 2023)
A second series of open houses were held in fall 2023 to gather feedback on the route corridors to help us refine corridors to a proposed route.
Proposed route (Summer 2025)
A proposed route was submitted to the North Dakota Public Service Commission, who reviewed and held two technical and three public hearings before making a decision on the Certificate of Corridor Compatibility and Route Permit, which was approved on June 24, 2026.
