Addressing Mr. Kroll's question regarding harnessing St. Anthony Falls
for hydroelectric power generation, Northern States Power (now Xcel
Energy) currently operates a 12 megawatt hydroelectric facility on the
Mississippi River at Hennepin Island (adjacent to St. Anthony Falls on
the north side of the river). According to NSP's web site, they've
operated at or near the St. Anthony Falls site since 1923.
