Sulphur River Basin Authority Concerned With Dike Solar Farm

The Sulphur River Basin Authority has issued a resolution by the Board of Directors notifying Hopkins County Officials that it has come to the attention of the Authority that the quality of water in the Basin is possibly currently threatened by the construction of Hopkins Solar. It is a solar development company owned by Engie North America and operated by Blattner Energy. It could adversely affect wildlife and flora in the area. The Authority is sending a letter requesting further investigation into the site to federal, state, and local officials.
