Lava Ridge and BLM with Dean Dimond

Dean Dimond is a property owner and rancher in the Magic Valley of Idaho. He owns property that border up to the Lava Ridge windmill project, a 200,000 acre project that was approved by the Bureau of Land Management on federal land that allows a private energy company to setup the largest windmills in the world in Idaho and then sell the power to out of state customers. Dean and everyone in his area have objected and fought against this project, but as of now, it is still moving forward.www.theRanchPodcast.orgThe Ranch Podcast is the premier source for long format interviews and information in the Treasure Valley and great state of Idaho. The Boise area is home to many counties and ways of life. It’s also home to many law enforcement agencies, like Ada County and Canyon county Sheriff offices, Idaho State Police, Eagle Police Department, Meridian Police Department, and many more. The school systems in the area are also quite diverse. Boise school district and West Ada School District, though right next to each other, are quite different. Ada County is also home to our state capital and many of our elected officials. The Ranch Podcast is shot just north of Eagle, Idaho. If you’re interested in producing a podcast or need content of any kind, please feel free to reach out to Matt at [email protected] Ridge Wind Project, windmill farm in Jerome, Idaho, Bureau of Land Management, BLM land controversy, Dean Dimond, Matt Todd, Ranch Podcast, opposition to Lava Ridge, Idaho property rights, wind energy debate, Idaho renewable energy, Jerome County wind farm, protecting rural communities, environmental impact of wind farms, local landowner concerns, wind energy and wildlife, preserving Idaho landscapes, renewable energy policies, Idaho wind farm protests, community resistance, BLM land management, rural Idaho issues, energy development conflicts, Idaho property values, sustainable energy debate, local input on land use
