FARGO (KFGO-AM) -- A consultant to the FM Diversion Authority says he doesn't believe that the Minnesota DNR raised its cost estimate for an environmental impact statement because of the agency's possible opposition to the project.
Bruce Spiller told a special meeting of the Authority that he believes that the number changed because of additional technical analysis.
The number is now more than $1.1 million. The orginal estimate was $750,000.
