| The number of people working on a $300 million coal-fired power plant near Jamestown will increase from 420 to more than 500 as temperatures begin to warm this month. Construction site manager Dennis Pozarnsky says snow and cold weather have hampered the work at the Spiritwood Industrial Park for a second straight winter, and workers are facing an Oct. 1 deadline to be done. Crews have been working seven days a week since September. Construction went to two shifts, around the clock, on Jan. 1. Maple Grove, Minn.-based Great River Energy is building the 64 megawatt power plant at the complex about a dozen miles from Jamestown. It will be North Dakota`s first coal-fired power plant in a quarter century. |
