Two California tribes have plans to host the largest wind power plant in Indian Country.
The Campo Band and Ewiiaapaayp Band have partnered with Superior Renewable Energy, a Texas company. The plan is to build 38 large wind turbines on the tribe's reservations by 2006.
The tribes signed 20-year contracts to receive royalties from power generated by the turbines. Superior plans to sell to San Diego Gas & Electric to provide power to 2,000 homes.
