After much speculation, Consumers Energy has filed a special land use permit application for a 100 megawatt wind farm in southern Mason County.

The plan was filed at the Mason County Zoning Office at 5 p.m. Friday. The office was closed Monday in observance of Martin Luther King Jr. Day.

Dennis Marvin and Dan Bishop of Consumers Energy said the company wanted to file the application prior to tonight’s planning commission meeting.

The application consists of 10 volumes – in all, about 36 inches.
