Alliant Energy paused its Fairfax, Iowa gas plant plan due to airport safety concerns over stack height.
Alliant Energy has deprioritized the Fairfax, Iowa site for its proposed natural gas power plant, citing safety concerns from the Eastern Iowa Airport Commission.
A third-party study found the planned 250-foot stacks would exceed local height limits and risk airport operations, federal funding, and aviation standards.
The company is now evaluating other regional sites, delaying its application to the Iowa Utilities Board.
While the city considers zoning changes, residents and officials remain divided over potential benefits like $350,000 in annual tax revenue versus health, noise, and environmental concerns.
