... that the Lava Ridge Wind Project proposal (simulation pictured) has faced opposition for putting 740-foot-tall (230 m)
wind turbines next to the former
Minidoka internment camp? Source:
Friends of Minidoka website "The proposed Lava Ridge wind project will forever alter Minidoka’s somber landscape and fails to honor the significance of the events that occurred at Minidoka as a place of reflection, healing, and education for the survivors, descendants, and public. The proposed project places 340 towers in the Minidoka NHS viewshed with 12 of those towers on the historic Minidoka footprint."

Comment: I have submitted less than 5 DYK nominations, so I don't think I need to do a QPQ
The article is new enough, long enough, neutral (the focus on criticism seems to actually reflect the sources). Hook facts are sourced properly in the article (better than the source given above, actually). Hook is interesting and formatting is ok. Image appears to be properly licensed and used in the article, but doesn't look good at the small size used on the Main Page. Good to go (without image). —
