Per the Bismarck Tribune:
Rep. Kevin Cramer, R-N.D., and Sen. John Hoeven, R-N.D., announced Perry’s visit, which will include tours of North American Coal’s Falkirk Mine and Great River Energy’s Coal Creek Station.
“I’m pleased to welcome Energy Secretary Perry to North Dakota where we truly have an all-the-above energy market,” Cramer said in a statement. “He’ll see some world class coal mine, coal power and associated facilities providing reliable and affordable energy to our region of the country with excellent environmental performance.”
Cramer said a roundtable discussion will include a wide range of energy stakeholders who will be able to share comments with Perry or ask questions. Gov. Doug Burgum was also invited to participate in the events.
“This is a tremendous opportunity for Secretary Perry to learn more about the innovative work that the Department of Energy is supporting in our state and how we can further advance our nation’s energy security,” Hoeven said in a statement.
