The role of the South Dakota Public Utilities Commission
The
South Dakota Public Utilities Commission must issue
a Facility Permit before a transmission line can
be constructed. For more information about the state
regulatory process, view the project
fact sheet or
visit the SD PUC
website.
Facility Permit
A Facility Permit from
the Commission is required prior to building a high
voltage transmission line. It determines if the proposed
transmission lines are necessary and what the appropriate
size, configuration and timing of the project should
be. For more information on the Facility Permit process,
