HELENA, Mont. (AP) — NorthWestern Energy said Tuesday that the Federal Trade Commission approved its proposed $900 million purchase of 11 hydroelectric dams in Montana, a move that could raise electric rates about 4 percent.
The company issued a statement saying it’s a significant step, but it still must be reviewed and approved by the state Public Service Commission and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission.
