The project would have constructed 231 wind turbines on approximately 57,447 acres near Jerome, Idaho, despite strong opposition from local community members, state officials and Idaho’s congressional delegation. “Thanks to the U.S. Department of the Interior and Secretary Doug Burgum’s leadership, the Lava Ridge project is dead once and for all,” Senator Crapo said. “This harmful proposal by the previous Administration willfully neglected widespread opposition from the local community. I am glad to see President Donald Trump fulfilling his commitment to making sure Idaho voices on this matter were heard and respected.” ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-07T14:57:50Z |
