An existing 230-kilovolt power line is shown Wednesday near Granite Falls. The now-defunct Big Stone II project included plans to upgrade transmission capacity on two corridors in the region: a line from the existing Big Stone plant near Milbank, S.D., to Morris and a line from the plant to Canby and from Canby to Granite Falls. Though a second plant will not be built, there remains interest by unnamed parties to preserve the route of the planned upgrades. Tribune photo by Susan Lunneborg
