Major wind farm breaks ground near Bridger

Construction of a 120-turbine wind farm is underway in Carbon County as developers scramble to benefit from a last-minute federal tax credit passed this week.

Workers are cutting roads and clearing pads for the $550 million Mud Springs Wind Ranch located 12 miles southeast of Bridger. One of the biggest wind projects in Montana, Mud Springs is expected to take several years to complete, according to project permits. At the high point of the blades’ reach, the wind turbines will be 454 feet tall.
