BIG BEND WIND "What I am most excited about for the project is the additional tax revenue that it will bring to the county and the townships, which will help keep our property taxes down. This wind project will also provide an additional source of reve- nue for the farm while grain prices are low. I like being able to lock in long-term revenue, know- ing the uncertainty of grain prices in the future. Apex has been a great company to work with, and they have been very generous in helping the local community out with their community grant program. Most wind companies would come in and only focus on developing the wind project-this is not the case with Apex. They stay involved in the community, participate in events, and give back in more ways than just wind farm development activities." -Kevin Oeltjenbruns, Comfrey, MN
