Mille Lacs Band To Create New Jobs

The Corporate Commission of the Mille Lacs Band of Ojibwe has become a major investor in a wind turbine project that could creat up to 15 jobs in District II of the Mille Lacs Reservation, which includes areas near McGregor. The Corporate Commission's investment in Mariah Power, a manufacturer that provides low-cst, ultra-quiet vertical wind turbines for residential and commercial use, allows it to have a 3-year contract to assembe wind turbine parts at a facility locast in District II. About 7 employees will be needed for the McGregor facility's startup, with the possibility that more workers will be added in the future. The facility is expected to start production in May of 2009.
