OCONTO COUNTY (WLUK) — Fox Solar put in an application to build a solar farm in Morgan about 15 miles southwest of Oconto Falls which would be able to generate 100 megawatts.
Along with the panels, would come a collector substation, a generation tie line and a battery energy storage system.
Thursday afternoon, the public has the chance to speak directly to the PSC.
Meetings are scheduled for 2:00 p.m. and 6:00 p.m. at the Oconto Falls Senior & Community Center.
A majority of concerns that were brought forward during the afternoon meeting were environmental.
"The land is not just open space on a map, it is prime agricultural land carefully maintained, tiled, productive ground that has fed families and livestock and supported farmers for generations," said Jolene Barkhaus.
If you were unable to make it to the meeting Thursday afternoon or evening, there are still opportunities for your voice to be heard.
Written comments may be submitted online until Monday, March 9.
