We’re pleased to let you know that the New Mexico Public Regulation Commission unanimously approved the Sagamore Wind project in Roosevelt County this morning.

A compromise proposal by Xcel Energy addressing objections over an interim rate recovery measure allowed the positive vote.

Further site approvals being addressed by the developer, Invenergy Wind Development are ongoing but the major hurdles have been cleared.

Our thanks and congratulations to Xcel Energy (SPS), Invenergy and all those who have been working tirelessly to gain approval for this important project. Watch for a full news release on the approvals on our website as soon as it becomes available.

Karl Terry, Executive Director
Roosevelt County Chamber of Commerce
