GNDC has been working with Sand Creek Winds, LLC (SCW) since 2012 to determine the feasibility of a 75 MW wind farm to be located on 18,360 acres of private lands in northern McCone County. So far, a Feasibility Study and a System Impact Study have been completed with the assistance of a $119,000 USDA Rural Business Enterprise Grant and a $21,000 Big Sky Trust Fund Grant. GNDC has also been awarded a $60,000 USDA Rural Business Development Grant to assist SCW in completing the Environmental Assessment phase of the project.
