Feds Bar Energy Staff from Deciding Their Own Hydro Project Fate

Published Date: 3/11/2025

Notice

Summary

NorthWestern Energy’s Thompson Falls Hydroelectric Project is getting some special treatment! Two Commission staff members, Rachael Warden and Elizabeth Molloy, will help with settlement talks but won’t make any decisions or give advice on the project’s approval. This keeps things fair and clear as other staff handle the official reviews—no money or deadlines change, just a smart way to keep roles separate.
