Minn. Stat. § 216I.13
A permittee holding a large energy infrastructure facility site or route permit may request that the commission transfer the permittee's permit. The permittee must provide the name of the existing permittee, the name and description of the entity to which the permit is to be transferred, the reasons for the transfer, a description of the facilities affected, and the proposed effective date of the transfer. The person to whom the permit is to be transferred must provide the commission with information the commission requires to determine whether the new permittee is able to comply with the permit's conditions. The commission must mail notice of receipt of the application to the persons on the general list at least seven days in advance of the date the commission considers the matter. The commission must provide the same notice to persons on the project contact list if a project contact list exists.
The commission must approve the transfer if the commission determines that the new permittee complies with the conditions of the permit. The commission, in approving the transfer of a permit, may impose reasonable additional conditions in the permit as part of the approval. The commission may decide to hold a public meeting to provide the public with an opportunity to comment on the request for the transfer prior to making a decision.
