10 bond issuances (the Bonds), we have the option to prepay all or a portion of the Bonds at our discretion, subject to a make-whole provision. The Bonds are subject to the terms and conditions of our utility mortgage. The Bonds were sold in reliance on an exemption from registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, to institutional accredited investors.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-WEIGHT: bold"&gt;Financial Covenants.&lt;/font&gt; Our long-term debt arrangements contain customary covenants. In addition, our lines of credit and letters of credit supporting certain long-term debt arrangements contain financial covenants. The most restrictive covenant requires ALLETE&amp;#160;to maintain a
 ratio of its Funded Debt to Total Capital (as the amounts are calculated in accordance with the respective long-term debt arrangements) of less than or equal to 0.65 to 1.00 measured quarterly. As of September 30, 2010, our ratio was approximately 0.43 to 1.00. Failure to meet this covenant would give rise to an event of default if not cured after notice from the lender, in which event ALLETE may need to pursue alternative sources of funding. Some of ALLETE&amp;#8217;s debt arrangements contain &amp;#8220;cross-default&amp;#8221; provisions that would result in an event of default if there is a failure under other financing arrangements to meet payment terms or to observe other covenants that would result in an acceleration of payments due. As of September 30, 2010, ALLETE was in compliance with its financial covenants.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</us-gaap:DebtDisclosureTextBlock>

This guidance also requires a roll forward schedule of the allowance for credit losses for each reporting period. The guidance for greater transparency is effective for annual reporting periods ending after December 15, 
2010, and the roll forward requirement is effective January 1, 2011. As the amended guidance provides only disclosure requirements, the adoption of this standard will not have an impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-WEIGHT: bold; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman"&gt;Recently Adopted Accounting Standards.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font st

This new guidance eliminated the scope exception for embedded credit derivatives and provided new guidance on the evaluation to be performed. This guidance was effective June 15, 2010.

evaluated.

This amended guidance requires separate disclosure of significant transfers in and out of Levels 1 and 2 and the reasons for the transfers. The amended guidance also requires that in the Level 3 reconciliation, the information a

t style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;2010 Rate Case.&lt;/font&gt; On November 2, 2009, Minnesota Power filed an $81 million retail rate increase request for additional revenues to recover the costs of significant investments to ensure current and future system reliability, enhance environmental performance, and bring new renewable energy to northeastern Minnesota. Interim rates were put into effect on January 1, 2010, and were originally estimated to increase revenues by $48.5 million in 2010. In April&amp;#160;2010, we adjusted our initial filing for events that had occurred since November 2009 &amp;#8211; primarily increased sales to our industrial customers &amp;#8211; resulting in a retail rate increase request of $72 million, a return on equity request of 11.25 percent, and a capital structure consisting of 54.29 percent equity and 45.71 percent debt. As a result of these increased sales, interim rates are est
imated to be approximately $53 million during 2010.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman"&gt;On September 29, 2010, the MPUC addressed the retail rate increase request and approved a 10.38 percent return on common equity and a 54.29 percent equity ratio. We estimate that the MPUC will order an overall retail electric rate increase of approximately $54 million when it issues its written order on the rate request, which is expected by November 2, 2010. Once the written order has been issued, any party may request reconsideration by the MPUC. Any party who seeks reconsideration may thereafter appeal to the Minnesota Court of Appeals. We will continue collecting interim rates from our customers until the new rates go into effect, which will be after the reconsideration 
period has expired, any appeals are addressed, and after all compliance filings are completed and accepted. Reconsideration, or appeal, of the written order, or modifications during the compliance period, could affect the final rate increase estimate. A final order, after reconsideration, is expected no later than the first quarter of 2011. Final rates are expected to be near the amount collected under interim rates, therefore, we expect little or no interim rate refunds to be issued.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;2008 Rate Case &amp;#8211; Fuel and Purchase Power&lt;/font&gt;. In the final 2008 retail rate case order, the MPUC approved the stipulation and settlement agreement that affirmed Minnesota
 Power&amp;#8217;s continued recovery of fuel and purchased power costs under the former base cost of fuel that was in effect prior to the 2008 retail rate filing. The transition to the former base cost of fuel began with the implementation of final rates on November&amp;#160;1,&amp;#160;2009. Any revenue impact associated with this transition will be identified in a future filing related to Minnesota Power&amp;#8217;s fuel clause operation.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;FERC-Approved Wholesale Rates. &lt;/font&gt;Minnesota Power&amp;#8217;s non-affiliated municipal customers consist of 16 municipalities in Minnesota and 1 private utility in Wisconsi
n. SWL&amp;amp;P, a wholly-owned subsidiary of ALLETE, is also a private utility in Wisconsin and a customer of Minnesota Power. In 2008, Minnesota Power entered into new formula based rate contracts with these customers which expire December&amp;#160;31,&amp;#160;2013. Under the formula-based rates provision, wholesale rates are set at the beginning of the year based on expected costs and provide for a true-up calculation for actual costs. Wholesale rate increases of approximately $6 million and $7 million annually were implemented on February 1, 2009, and January&amp;#160;1,&amp;#160;2010, respectively. The 2009 true-up calculation resulted in additional revenue accruals of $6.0 million at the end of 2009. The majority of these additional revenue accruals have been collected as of September 30, 2010.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;

On May 17, 2010, SWL&amp;amp;P filed a rate increase request with the PSCW seeking an average overall increase of 3.6 percent for retail customers (a 1.4 percent increase in electric rates, a 3.0 percent increase in natural gas rates, and a 17.9 percent increase in water rates). The rate filing seeks an overall return on equity of 11.3 percent, and a capital structure consisting of 56.9 percent equity and 43.1 percent debt. On an annualized basis, the requested rate increase would generate approximately $3 million in additional revenue. Evidentiary and public hearings were held on September 22, 2010. The Company anticipates new rates w
ill take effect during the first quarter of 2011. We cannot predict the level of rates that may be approved by the PSCW.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-WEIGHT: bold"&gt;Regulatory Assets and Liabilities.&lt;/font&gt; Our regulated utility operations are subject to the accounting guidance for Regulated Operations.

We have determined that either we have no variable interest in the PPA, or where we do have variable interests,
 we are not the primary beneficiary; therefore, consolidation is not required. These conclusions are based on the following factors: we do not have control over activities that are most significant to the entity, and we have no obligation to absorb losses or receive benefits from the entity&amp;#8217;s performance. Our financial exposure relating to these PPA is limited to our fixed capacity and energy payments.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;Square Butte PPA.&lt;/font&gt; Minnesota Power has a power purchase agreement with Square Butte that extends through 2026 (Agreement). It provides a long-term supply of energy to customers in our electric service territory and enables Minnesota Power to meet powe
r pool reserve requirements. Square Butte, a North Dakota cooperative corporation, owns a 455-MW coal-fired generating unit (Unit) near Center, North Dakota. The Unit is adjacent to a generating unit owned by Minnkota Power, a North Dakota cooperative corporation whose Class A members are also members of Square Butte. Minnkota Power serves as the operator of the Unit and also purchases power from Square Butte.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman"&gt;Minnesota Power is obligated to pay its pro&amp;#160;rata share of Square Butte&amp;#8217;s costs based on Minnesota Power&amp;#8217;s entitlement to Unit output. Our output entitlement under the Agreement is 50 percent for the remainder of the contract, subject to the provisions of the Minnkota power sales agreement di
scussed on page 22. Minnesota Power&amp;#8217;s payment obligation will be suspended if Square Butte fails to deliver any power, whether produced or purchased, for a period of one year. Square Butte&amp;#8217;s costs consist primarily of debt service, operating and maintenance, depreciation and fuel expenses. We expect debt service, operating and maintenance and depreciation expenses to increase in 2011 due to environmental compliance obligations. As of September&amp;#160;30,&amp;#160;2010, Square Butte had total debt outstanding of $321.3 million. Fuel expenses are recoverable through our fuel adjustment clause and include the cost of coal purchased from BNI Coal, our subsidiary, under a long-term contract.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt"&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-WEIGHT: bold; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman"&gt;&amp;#160; &lt;/font&g

Under the power sales agreement, Minnesota Power will sell a portion of its output from Square Butte to Minnkota, resulting in Minnkota&amp;#8217;s net entitlement increasing and Minnesota Power&amp;#8217;s net entitlement decreasing until Minnesota Power&amp;#8217;s share is eliminated at the end of 2025.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justi

This new AC transmission line will allow Minnkota to transmit its entitlement from Square Butte directly to its customers, and allow Minnesota Power additional capacity on the recently acquired DC line to transmit new wind generation.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;Wind PPA. &lt;/font&gt;In 2006 and 2007, we entered into two long-term wind PPA with an affiliate of NextEra Energy, Inc. to purchase the output from two wind facilities, Oliver Wind I (50 MWs) and Oli
ver Wind II (48 MWs), located near Center, North Dakota. Each agreement is for 25 years and provides for the purchase of all output from the facilities at fixed prices.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;Hydro PPA.&lt;/font&gt; We have a PPA with Manitoba Hydro that began in May 2009 and expires in April 2015. Under the agreement with Manitoba Hydro, Minnesota Power purchases 50 MWs of capacity and the energy associated with that capacity. Both the capacity price and the energy price are adjusted annually by the change in a governmental inflationary index.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TE

This energy-only transaction primarily consists of surplus hydro energy on Manitoba Hydro&amp;#8217;s system that is delivered to Minnesota Power on a non-firm basis.&amp;#160;The pricing is based on forward market prices. Under this agreement with Manitoba Hydro, Minnesota Power will be purchasing at least one million MWh of energy over the contract term. On September 1, 2010, we filed a petition with the MPUC to approve our PPA with Manitoba Hydro.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 1

The 465-mile transmission line runs from Center, North Dakota, to Duluth, Minnesota. We expect to use this line to transport increasing amounts of wind energy from North Dakota while gradually phasing out coal-based electricity currently being delivered to our system over this transmission line from Square Butte&amp;#8217;s lignite coal-fired generating unit.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman"&gt;Bison I, with a nameplate capacity of approximately 76 MWs,
 is the first portion of several hundred MWs of our North Dakota Wind Project, which upon completion will help fulfill the Minnesota 2025 renewable energy supply requirement for our retail load. In 2009, the NDPSC authorized site construction for Bison I and on March 10, 2010, approved the construction of a 22-mile, 230 kV transmission line that will connect Bison I to the DC transmission line at the Square Butte Substation in Center, North Dakota. In 2009, the MPUC approved Minnesota Power&amp;#8217;s petition seeking current cost recovery eligibility for investments and expenditures related to Bison I and associated transmission upgrades. On July 21, 2010, the MPUC approved our petition establishing rates effective August 1, 2010.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Ro

The 22-mile, 230 kV transmission line has been completed and 16 wind turbines have been installed and will be phased into service through the end of 2010. The remaining turbines will be installed in 2011.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-WEIGHT: bold"&gt;Leasing Agreements.&lt;/font&gt; BNI Coal is obligated to make lease payments for a dragline totaling $2.8&amp;#160;million annually for the lease term which expires in 2027. BNI Coal has the option at the end of the lease term to renew the lease at fai

We lease other properties and equipment under operating lease agreements with terms expiring through 2016. The aggregate amount of minimum lease payments for all operating leases is $8.8 million in 2010, $8.9 million in 2011, $9.0&amp;#160;million in 2012, $8.5 million in 2013, $8.2 million in 2014 and $45.7 million thereafter.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman"&gt;&lt;a id="CoalContracts" name="CoalContracts"&gt;&lt;!--EFPlaceholder--&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-WEIGHT: bold"&gt;Coal, Rail and Shipping Contracts&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-WEIGHT: bold"&gt;.&lt;/font&gt; We have coal supp

These coal and transportation agreements, including option terms, expire in various years between 2010 and 2015. Our remaining minimum payment obligation as of September 30, 2010, under these coal, rail and shipping agreements is $7.6 million for 2010. Our minimum annual payment obligation for 2011 is $7.4 million, 2012 is $1.6 million, and 2013 is $1.3 million. Our minimum annual payment obligation will increase when annual nominations are made for coal deliveries in future years.

CapX2020, which consists of electric cooperatives, municipals and investor-owned utilities, including Minnesota&amp;#8217;s largest transmission owners, has assessed the transmission system and projected growth in customer demand for electricity through 2020. Studies show that the region's transmission system will require major upgrades and expansion to accommodate increased electricity demand as well as support renewable energy expansion through 2020. As future CapX2020 projects are identified, Minnesota Power may elect to participate on a project by project basis.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/

Based on projected costs of the three transmission lines and the percentage agreements among participating utilities, Minnesota Power plans to invest between $100 million and $125 million in the CapX2020 initiative through 2015. As CapX2020 project costs are eligible for current cost recovery, the Company has petitioned the MPUC to recover those costs under a transmission cost recovery tariff rider.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt"&gt;&lt;b

y"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman"&gt;Our businesses are subject to regulation of environmental matters by various federal, state and local authorities. Currently, a number of regulatory changes are under consideration by both Congress and the EPA. Most notably, clean energy technologies and the regulation of GHGs have been a focus of these discussions. Minnesota Power&amp;#8217;s fossil fueled facilities will likely be subject to regulation under these climate change policies. Our intention is to reduce our exposure to possible future carbon and GHG legislation by reshaping our generation portfolio, over time, to reduce our reliance on coal.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman"&gt;We consider our businesses to be 
in substantial compliance with currently applicable environmental regulations and believe all necessary permits to conduct such operations have been obtained. Due to future restrictive environmental requirements through legislation and/or rulemaking, we anticipate that potential expenditures for environmental matters will be material and will require significant capital investments.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman"&gt;We review environmental matters on a quarterly basis. Accruals for environmental matters are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be reasonably estimated, based on current law and existing technologies. These accruals are adjusted periodically as assessment and remediation efforts prog
ress or as additional technical or legal information become available. Accruals for environmental liabilities are included in the consolidated balance sheet at undiscounted amounts and exclude claims for recoveries from insurance or other third parties. Costs related to environmental contamination treatment and cleanup are charged to expense unless recoverable in rates from customers.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-WEIGHT: bold; FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;Clean Air Act.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-WEIGHT: bold"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/font&gt;The federal Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990 (Clean Air Act) established the acid rain program which created emission allowances for SO&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline;

Minnesota Power&amp;#8217;s generating facilities mainly burn low-sulfur western sub-bituminous coal. Square Butte, located in North Dakota, burns lignite coal. All of these facilities are equipped with pollution control equipment such as scrubbers, bag houses, or electrostatic precipitators.

The NOV asserts that seven projects undertaken at these coal-fired plants between the years 1981 and 2000 should have been reviewed under the NSR requirements, and that the Boswell Unit 4 Title V permit was violated. Minnesota Power believes the projects were in full compliance with the Clean Air Act, NSR requirements and applicable permits.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman"
&gt;We are engaged in discussions with the EPA regarding resolution of these matters, but we are unable to predict the outcome of these discussions. Since 2006, Minnesota Power has significantly reduced emissions at Laskin and Boswell, and continues to reduce emissions at Boswell. The resolution could result in civil penalties and the installation of control technology, some of which is already planned or completed for other regulatory requirements. Any costs of installing pollution control technology would likely be eligible for recovery in rates over time subject to MPUC and FERC approval in a rate proceeding. We are unable to predict the ultimate financial impact or the resolution of these matters at this time.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman"&gt;&lt;font st
yle="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;EPA Transport Rule.&lt;/font&gt; On July 6, 2010, the EPA proposed a rule known as the Transport Rule (TR) requiring 31 states, including Minnesota and the District of Columbia, to reduce power plant SO&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 70%; VERTICAL-ALIGN: sub"&gt;2&lt;/font&gt; and NO&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 70%; VERTICAL-ALIGN: sub"&gt;x&lt;/font&gt; emissions that can significantly contribute to ozone and fine particle pollution problems in other states. If adopted, the TR will replace the Clean Air Interstate Rule (CAIR) that was issued by the EPA in March 2005. CAIR sought to reduce and permanently cap emissions of SO&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 70%; VERTICAL-ALIGN: sub"&gt;2&lt;/font&gt;, NO&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 70%; VERTICAL-ALIGN: sub"&gt;x&lt;/font&gt;, and particulates in the eastern United States. Minnesota was included as one of the original 28 CAIR states but, following Minnesota Power&
amp;#8217;s successful challenge to CAIR, the EPA granted an administrative stay of the CAIR requirements in Minnesota while it prepared the TR. The proposed TR responds to the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit&amp;#8217;s remand of CAIR by replacing and reforming questionable provisions to address updated air quality standards, improved emissions data and reformed emissions transport modeling.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman"&gt;The EPA took public comments on the proposed rule through October 1, 2010, and plans to finalize the rule in June 2011. Emissions reductions are proposed to take effect in 2012, within one year of projected finalization of the rule.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; TEXT-INDENT: 0p

Since 2005, we have made substantial investments in pollution control equipment at our Laskin, Taconite Harbor and Boswell generating units which have significantly reduced emissions. These reductions may satisfy Minnesota Power&amp;#8217;s obligations with respect to these requirements. We are unable to predict any additional compliance costs we might incur at this time.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman"&gt;&lt;fon
t style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;Minnesota Regional Haze&lt;/font&gt;. The federal regional haze rule requires states to submit state implementation plans (SIPs) to the EPA to address regional haze visibility impairment in 156 federally-protected parks and wilderness areas. Under the regional haze rule, certain large stationary sources, put in place between 1962 and 1977, with emissions contributing to visibility impairment are required to install emission controls, known as Best Available Retrofit Technology (BART). We have two steam units, Boswell Unit 3 and Taconite Harbor Unit 3, which are subject to BART requirements.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman"&gt;Pursuant to the regional haze rule, Minnesota was required to develop its SIP by Decembe
r 2007. As a mechanism for demonstrating progress towards meeting the long-term regional haze goal, in April 2007 the MPCA advanced a draft conceptual SIP which relied on the implementation of CAIR. However, a formal SIP was not filed at that time due to the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit&amp;#8217;s remand of CAIR. Subsequently, the MPCA requested that companies with BART eligible units complete and submit a BART emissions control retrofit study, which was completed for Taconite Harbor Unit 3 in November 2008. The retrofit work completed in 2009 at Boswell Unit 3 meets the BART requirement for that unit. In December 2009, the MPCA approved the SIP for submittal to the EPA for its review and approval. The EPA is expected to make a decision on whether to approve the Minnesota SIP by January 2011. If approved, Minnesota Power will have five years to bring Taconite Harbor Unit 3 into compliance. It is uncertain what controls will ultimately be required at Taconite Harbor Uni
t 3 in connection with the regional haze rule.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt"&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-WEIGHT: bold; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman"&gt;&amp;#160; &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;EPA National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAPs) for Electric Utility Units. &lt;/font&gt;Under Section 112 of the Clean Air Act, the EPA is required to set emission standards for hazardous air pollutants for certain source categories. In December 2009, Minnesota Power and other utilities received an Information Collection Request from the EPA requiring that emissions data be 
provided and stack testing be performed in order to develop a database upon which to base future regulations. On March&amp;#160;30,&amp;#160;2010, Minnesota Power responded to the Information Collection Request. Stack testing was completed during the third quarter of 2010 and the results were submitted to the EPA. The EPA is subject to a consent decree which requires the EPA to propose a utility NESHAPs rule by March 2011, with the final rule by November 2011. As part of the NESHAPs rulemaking, EPA will develop Maximum Achievable Control Technology standards for utilities. Costs for complying with potential future mercury and other hazardous air pollutant regulations under the Clean Air Act cannot be estimated at this time.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman"&gt;&
lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;Minnesota Mercury Emission Reduction Act.&lt;/font&gt; Under Minnesota law, a mercury emissions reduction plan for Boswell Unit 4 is required to be submitted by July 1, 2015, with implementation no later than December 31, 2018. The statute also calls for an evaluation of a mercury control alternative which provides for environmental and public health benefits without imposing excessive costs on the utility&amp;#8217;s customers. Costs for the Boswell Unit 4 emission reduction plan cannot be estimated at this time.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-WEIGHT: bold; FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;Proposed and Finalized National Ambient Air Quality Standards. &lt;/font&gt;The EPA i
s required to review the National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) every five years. Each state is required to adopt plans describing how they will reduce emissions to attain these NAAQS if the state&amp;#8217;s air quality is not in compliance with a NAAQS. These state plans often include new regulations imposing more stringent air emission limitations on sources of air pollutants in the state. Four NAAQS have either recently been finalized, or are currently proposed, as described below.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;Ozone NAAQS.&lt;/font&gt; The EPA is attempting to more stringently control emissions that result in ground level ozone. In January 2010, the EPA proposed to reduce the eight-hour 
ozone standard and to adopt a secondary standard for the protection of sensitive vegetation from ozone-related damage. The EPA expects to issue final standards by 2011. As proposed, states have until December 2013 to submit plans outlining how they will meet the standards.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;Particulate Matter NAAQS.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 70%; VERTICAL-ALIGN: sub; FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/font&gt;The EPA finalized the NAAQS Particulate Matter standards in September&amp;#160;2006, by establishing a more stringent 24-hour average fine particulate (PM&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 70%; VERTICAL-ALIGN: sub"&gt;2.5&lt;/font&gt;) standa
rd and keeping the annual average fine particulate matter standard and the 24-hour coarse particulate matter standard unchanged. The District of Columbia Circuit Court of Appeals has remanded the PM&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 70%; VERTICAL-ALIGN: sub"&gt;2.5&lt;/font&gt; standard to the EPA, requiring consideration of lower annual average standard values. The EPA has indicated that air quality monitoring for 2008 through 2010 will be used as a basis for states to characterize their attainment status. The EPA plans to finalize the new PM&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 70%; VERTICAL-ALIGN: sub"&gt;2.5&lt;/font&gt; standards in 2011, and state attainment status determination will likely not occur prior to 2013.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New

Monitor data indicates that Minnesota will likely be in compliance with these new standards; however, the SO&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 70%; VERTICAL-ALIGN: sub"&gt;2&lt;/font&gt; NAAQS also requires the EPA to evaluate modeling data to determine attainment. It is unclear what the outcome of this evaluation will be. The
se NAAQS could result in more stringent emission limits on our steam generating facilities. The final compliance status for SO&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 70%; VERTICAL-ALIGN: sub"&gt;2&lt;/font&gt; is expected in 2012, with compliance required by August 2017. The compliance status for NO&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 70%; VERTICAL-ALIGN: sub"&gt;2&lt;/font&gt; is not expected until 2016 or 2017, following the installation of additional air quality monitors and the collection and analysis of additional air quality data.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman"&gt;We are unable to predict the nature or timing of any additional NAAQS regulation or compliance costs we might incur at this time.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: blo

These all have the potential to affect the Company&amp;#8217;s business and operations.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY:

Several proposals at the federal level to &amp;#8220;cap&amp;#8221; the amount of GHG emissions have been made. In June 2009, the U.S. House of Representatives passed H.R. 2454, the American Clean Energy and Security Act of 2009. H.R. 2454 is a comprehensive energy bill that also includes a cap-and-trade program. H.R. 2454 allocates a significant number of emission allowances to the electric utility sector to mitigate cost impacts on consumers. Based on the emission allowance allocations proposed in H.R. 2454, we expect we would have to purchase additional allowances.

This legislation establishes a goal 
of reducing statewide GHG emissions across all sectors to a level at least 15 percent below 2005 levels by 2015, at least 30 percent below 2005 levels by 2025, and at least 80 percent below 2005 levels by 2050. In May 2008, Minnesota passed legislation that required the MPCA to track emissions and make interim emissions reduction recommendations towards meeting the State&amp;#8217;s goal.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;Midwestern Greenhouse Gas Reduction Accord. &lt;/font&gt;Minnesota is also participating in the Midwestern Greenhouse Gas Reduction Accord (the Accord), a regional effort to develop a multi-state approach to GHG emission reductions. The Accord includes an agreement to develop a multi-se

In December 2009, leaders of developed and developing countries met in Copenhagen, Denmark, under the UNFCCC and issued the Copenhagen Accord. The Copenhagen Accord provides a mechanism for countries to make economy-wide GHG emission mitigation commitments for reducing emissions of GHG by 2
020, and provides for developed countries to fund GHG emissions mitigation projects in developing countries. President Obama participated in the development of, and endorsed, the Copenhagen Accord.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;EPA Greenhouse Gas Reporting Rule&lt;/font&gt;. In September 2009, the EPA issued a final rule mandating that certain GHG emission sources, including electric generating units and gas distribution companies (such as SWL&amp;amp;P), are required to report GHG emissions.&amp;#160;The rule is intended to allow the EPA to collect accurate and timely data on GHG emissions that can be used to form future policy decisions. The rule w
as effective January&amp;#160;1,&amp;#160;2010, and all GHG emissions must be reported on an annual basis beginning March 31, 2011. We have the equipment and data tools necessary to report our 2010 emissions to comply with this rule.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;EPA Regulation of GHG Emissions.&lt;/font&gt;&amp;#160;In December 2009, the EPA issued an &amp;#8220;Endangerment Finding&amp;#8221; with respect to emissions of GHGs. The Endangerment Finding was the EPA&amp;#8217;s published determination that six GHGs endanger human health or welfare, and that emissions from motor vehicles contribute to that endangerment. The EPA&amp;#8217;s exercise of authority over GHG emissions through the Endangerme
nt Finding triggered the EPA&amp;#8217;s regulation of stationary sources for GHGs under the Clean Air Act.&amp;#160;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman"&gt;On May 13, 2010, the EPA issued the final Prevention of Significant Deterioration (PSD) and Title V Greenhouse Gas Tailoring Rule. The PSD/Title V Greenhouse Gas Tailoring Rule establishes thresholds for when permits will be required to address GHG emissions for new facilities, at existing facilities that undergo major modifications, and at other facilities that are characterized as major sources under the Clean Air Act&amp;#8217;s Title V program. Under the new rule, existing sources of emissions that already have a Title V permit would have GHG provisions added to their permits upon renewal. The rule require
s large industrial facilities, including power plants, that undergo major modifications resulting in a significant increase in GHG emissions to obtain PSD permits that demonstrate that Best Available Control Technology (BACT) is being used at the facility to control GHG emissions. The EPA has defined significant emissions increase for existing sources as a GHG increase of 75,000 tons per year or more of total GHG on a CO&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 70%; VERTICAL-ALIGN: sub"&gt;2&lt;/font&gt; equivalent basis. The EPA is expected to propose BACT standards for GHG emissions from stationary sources in late 2010.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman"&gt;For our existing facilities, the rule does not require amending our existing Title V operating permits 
to include GHGs requirements. Implementation of that requirement to add GHG provisions will be completed at the state level in Minnesota by the MPCA when the Title V permits are renewed. However, installation of new units or modification of existing units resulting in a significant increase in GHG emissions will require obtaining PSD permits and amending our operating permits to incorporate BACT to control GHG emissions. Minnesota Power&amp;#8217;s existing facilities become subject to the BACT requirements if they undergo major modifications that result in a significant emissions increase. Legal challenges to the EPA&amp;#8217;s regulation of GHG emissions, including the Tailoring Rule, have been filed and are awaiting judicial determination.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: T

Two facilities store ash in onsite impoundments (ash ponds) with engineered liners and containment dikes. Another facility stores dry ash in a landfill with an engineered liner and leachate collection system. Two facilities generate a combined wood and coal ash that is either land applied as 
an approved beneficial use, or trucked to state permitted landfills. On June 18, 2010, the EPA proposed regulations for coal combustion residuals generated by the electric utility sector. The proposal seeks comments on two general regulatory schemes for coal ash. Comments are due to the EPA by November 18, 2010. We are unable to predict the compliance costs we might incur; however, there is the possibility they could have a material impact.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-WEIGHT: bold; FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;Manufactured Gas Plant Site.&lt;/font&gt;&amp;#160;We are reviewing and addressing environmental conditions at a former manufactured gas plant site within the City of Superior, Wisconsin, and formerly operated by SW

Although the coal supply agreements obligate the customers to provide for the closing costs, an additional guarantee is required by federal and state regulations. In addition to the surety bonds, BNI Coal has secured a Letter of Credit with CoBANK ACB for an additional $10.0 million. The combination of the surety bonds and the Letter of Credit is sufficient to meet the requirements to guarantee BNI Coal&amp;#8217;s total reclamation liability, currently estimated at $25.1 million.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-WEIGHT: bold"&gt;ALLETE Propertie

The remaining work to be completed on these improvements is estimated to be approximately $9.0 million, and ALLETE Properties does not believe it is likely that any of these outstanding bonds will be drawn upon.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-WEIGHT: bold"&gt;Community Development District Obligations.&lt;/font&gt; In March 2005, the Town Center District issued $26.4 million of tax-exempt, 6 percent Capital Improvement Revenu
e Bonds, Series 2005; and in May 2006, the Palm Coast Park District issued $31.8 million of tax-exempt, 5.7 percent Special Assessment Bonds, Series 2006. The Capital Improvement Revenue Bonds and the Special Assessment Bonds are payable through property tax assessments on the land owners over 31 years (by May 1, 2036, and 2037, respectively). The bond proceeds were used to pay for the construction of a portion of the major infrastructure improvements in each district, and to mitigate traffic and environmental impacts. The bonds are payable from and secured by the revenue derived from annual assessments imposed, levied and collected by each district. The assessments are being billed annually to the landowners. To the extent that we own land at the time of the annual assessment, we will incur the cost of our portion of these assessments, based upon our ownership of benefited property. As of September&amp;#160;30,&amp;#160;2010, we owned 69 percent of the assessable land in the Town Center District (69 percent
 as of December 31, 2009) and 93 percent of the assessable land in the Palm Coast Park District (86 percent as of December&amp;#160;31,&amp;#160;2009). At these ownership levels our annual assessments are approximately $1.5 million for Town Center and $2.1 million for Palm Coast Park. As we sell property, the obligation to pay special assessments will pass to the new landowners. Under current accounting rules, these bonds are not reflected as debt on our consolidated balance sheet.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-WEIGHT: bold"&gt;Other.&lt;/font&gt; We are involved in litigation arising in the normal course of business.

There was no allowance for doubtful accounts as of September 30, 2010 ($0.4 million as of December 31, 2009).

The properties were sold with seller financing, of which $7.0 million remained due and owing from the purchaser that filed for voluntary Chapter 11 bankr
uptcy protection in June 2009. The bankruptcy trustee approved the transfer of the properties back to ALLETE Properties in satisfaction of the amount owed. The fair value of the properties received net of selling expenses was $8.8 million. The receipt of properties resulted in a pretax gain of $0.7 million after reflecting other liabilities assumed and non-controlling interest.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;Auction Rate Securities.&lt;/font&gt; Included in Available-for-sale Securities as of September 30, 2010, is an auction rate municipal bond of $6.7 million ($6.7 million at December 31, 2009) with a stated maturity date of March&amp;#160;1,&amp;#160;2024. Our ARS consist of guaranteed student loan
s insured or reinsured by the federal government. ARS were historically auctioned every 35 days to set new rates and provided a liquidating event in which investors could either buy or sell securities. Since 2008, the auctions for ARS have been unable to sustain themselves due to the overall lack of market liquidity and we have been unable to liquidate all of our ARS. As a result, we have classified our ARS as long-term investments and have the ability to hold these securities to maturity, until called by the issuer, or until liquidity returns to this market. We anticipate our ARS will be redeemed at par within the next year; however, the investment remains classified as long-term.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</us-gaap:InvestmentsInDebtAndMarketableEquitySecuritiesAndCertainTradingAssetsDisclosureTextBlock>

The law includes provisions to generate tax revenue to help offset the cost of the new legislation. One of the provisions changes the tax treatment for retiree prescription drug expenses by eliminating the tax deduction for expenses that are reimbursed under Medicare Part D, beginning January 1, 2013. Based on this provision, we are subject to additional 
taxes in the future and were required to reverse previously recorded tax benefits in the period of enactment. Consequently, the elimination of the previously recorded tax benefit resulted in a non-recurring charge to net income of $4.0 million in the first quarter of 2010. On October 8, 2010, we submitted a filing with the MPUC to request deferral of the retail impact of Medicare Part D of this legislation. We are unable to predict the outcome at this time.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;table style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="100%"&gt;&lt;tr bgcolor="#cceeff"&gt;&lt;td valign="bottom" width="72%"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman"&gt;&amp;#160; &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td style="TEXT-ALIGN: center" valign="bottom" width="14%" colspan="2"&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: -18pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt; TEXT-ALIGN: center"&gt;&lt;font

s New Roman"&gt;Federal deferred tax expense for 2010 is higher due to tax planning initiatives and bonus depreciation provisions of the Small Business Jobs Act of 2010. Due to the bonus depreciation provisions, we expect to be in a net operating loss position for 2010. We expect to fully utilize the projected net operating loss carryforward; therefore a deferred tax asset has been recorded to recognize the resulting tax benefit. Included in the nine month period ending September 30, 2010, is a one-time charge of $4.0 million as a result of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act eliminating the tax deduction for expenses that are reimbursed under Medicare Part D beginning January 1, 2013. The federal deferred tax expense for 2009 primarily resulted from the bonus depreciation provisions of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=
"DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman"&gt;For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, the effective tax rate was 39.6 percent (33.8 percent for the nine months ended September 30, 2009). Excluding additional tax expense recorded as a result of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, the 2010 effective tax rate was 35.7 percent. The 2010 effective tax rate, excluding the additional tax expense recorded as a result of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, deviated from the statutory rate of approximately 41 percent primarily due to deductions for AFUDC-Equity, investment tax credits, wind production tax credits, and depletion. The 2010 effective tax rate was also favorably impacted by $0.8 million for the completion of a state income tax audit.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DIS

For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, we have not received any prescription drug reimbursements.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</us-gaap:PensionAndOth

We utilize market data or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk and the risks inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. These inputs can be
 readily observable, market corroborated, or generally unobservable. We primarily apply the market approach for recurring fair value measurements and endeavor to utilize the best available information. Accordingly, we utilize valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. These inputs, which are used to measure fair value, are prioritized through the fair value hierarchy. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurement). Descriptions of the three levels of the fair value hierarchy are included in our 2009 Form 10-K.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times 
New Roman"&gt;The following tables set forth by level within the fair value hierarchy, our assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2010, and December 31, 2009. Each asset and liability is classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment, which may affect the valuation of fair value assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy levels.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="DISPLAY: block; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;table style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="100%"&gt;&lt;tr bgcolor="#cceeff"&gt;&lt;td valign="top" width="72%"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman"&gt;&amp;#160; &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td valign="top" width="28%" colspa
