standard which requires entities that measure inventory using the first-in, first-out or average cost methods to measure inventory at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Net realizable value is defined as estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation.

Under the new guidance, an entity makes an accounting policy election to either estimate the expected forfeiture awards or account for forfeitures as they occur. This accounting guidance was adopted in the first quarter of 2017.

The clarifying guidance will also impact other areas including the accounting for goodwill and consolidation. This accounting guidance was adopted in the first quarter of 2017 and did not have an impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:bold;">Recently Issued Pronouncements</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">In January 2017, the FASB issued updated guidance which simplifies the measurement of goodwill impairment by removing step two of the goodwill impairment test that requires the determination of the fair value of individual assets and liabilities of a reporting unit. The updated guidance requires goodwill impairment to be measured as the amount by which a reporting unit&#8217;s carrying value exceeds its fair value; however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. This guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2020, with early adoption permitted on a prospective basis. </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost. </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">In March 2017, the FASB issued guidance to improve the presentation of net periodic pension and postretirement benefit costs. Under the new guidance, an entity shall present the service cost component of the net periodic benefit cost in the same income statement line as other employee compensation costs arising from services rendered during the period. The guidance also allows only the service cost component of the periodic expense to be eligible for capitalization. The other components of net periodic expense will be presented separately from the line item that includes the service cost and will be excluded from the operating income subtotal. This accounting guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2018. The adoption of this guidance by the Company is expected to result in higher operating expense and lower operating income. This guidance is not expected to have an impact on net income. We will continue to evaluate the impact of this standard on our Consolidated Financial Statements. </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">Revenue from Contracts with Customers.</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;In 2014, the FASB issued amended revenue recognition guidance to clarify the principles for recognizing revenue from contracts with customers. The guidance requires an entity to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance also requires expanded disclosures relating to the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. Additionally, qualitative and quantitative disclosures are required regarding customer contracts, significant judgments and changes in judgments, and assets recognized from the costs to obtain or fulfill a contract. The Company is considering the impact of the new guidance on its ability to recognize revenue from certain contracts where collectibility is in question and bundled sales contracts and contracts with pricing provisions that may require it to recognize revenue at prices other than the contract price (e.g., straight line or estimated future market prices). The guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2018 with early adoption permitted. The Company will adopt this guidance for our fiscal year beginning January 1, 2018.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">Leases.</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;In February 2016, the FASB issued an accounting standard update which revises the existing guidance for leases. Under the revised guidance, lessees will be required to recognize a &#8220;right-of-use&#8221; asset and a lease liability for all leases with a term greater than 12 months. The new standard also requires additional quantitative and qualitative disclosures by lessees and lessors to enable users of the financial statements to assess the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. The accounting for leases by lessors and the recognition, measurement and presentation of expenses and cash flows from leases are not expected to significantly change as a result of the updated guidance. The revised guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2019 with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of the amended lease guidance on our Consolidated Financial Statements.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">Financial Instruments</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">. In January 2016, the FASB issued an accounting standard update which requires entities to measure their investments at fair value and recognize any changes in fair value in net income unless the investments qualify for the new practicability exception. The practicability exception will be available for equity investments that do not have readily determinable fair values. The updated guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2018. We are currently evaluating the impact that the standard will have on our Consolidated Financial Statements.  </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div><br></div><div style="text-align:center;"><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:center;font-size:8pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:8pt;">ALLETE, Inc.

This accounting guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2018. The guidance will result in changes to the Company&#8217;s Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows relating to debt prepayments, contingent consideration payments, proceeds from insurance settlements, proceeds from corporate-owned life insurance policies and distributions received from equity method investees.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">Statement of Cash Flows: Restricted Cash. </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">In November 2016, the FASB issued an accounting standard update related to the presentation of restricted cash in the Company&#8217;s Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. The update requires that the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows explain the change during the period in cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash. Restricted cash should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. This accounting guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2018. The Company plans to adopt this guidance for our fiscal year beginning January 1, 2018, and the guidance will result in changes to the Company&#8217;s Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows such that restricted cash amounts will be included in the beginning-of-period and end-of-period cash and cash equivalents totals. </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;">Revision of Prior Balance Sheet.</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;During the first quarter of 2017, the Company identified an error related to the deferred income tax treatment associated with its Wholesale and Retail Contra AFUDC Regulatory Liability. The Company evaluated the materiality of the error and concluded it was not material to any previously issued historical financial statements. The Company has revised its historical Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2016, by decreasing Regulatory Assets and Deferred Income Taxes by </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$29.5 million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">. The correction had no impact on our Consolidated Statement of Income. </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font

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 discussed in Note 9.

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 these assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy levels. The estimated fair value of Cash and Cash Equivalents listed on the Consolidated Balance Sheet approximates the carrying amount and therefore is excluded from the recurring fair value measures in the following tables.</font></div><div><br></div><div style="text-align:center;"><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:center;font-size:8pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:8pt;">ALLETE, Inc.

The rate filing seeks a return on equity of </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">10.25</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#160;percent and a </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">53.8 percent</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;equity ratio. On an annualized basis, the requested final rate increase would have generated approximately </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$55&#160;million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;in additional revenue. In December&#160;2016, Minnesota Power filed a request to modify its original interim rate proposal reducing its requested interim rate increase to </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$34.7&#160;million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;from the original request of approximately </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$49 million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;due to a change in its electric sales forecast. In December&#160;2016 orders, the MPUC accepted the November 2016 filing as complete and authorized an annual interim rate increase of </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$34.7&#160;million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;beginning January&#160;1,&#160;2017. </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">On February&#160;23,&#160;2017, Minnesota Power filed an additional request to further reduce its requested interim rate increase. In an order dated April 13, 2017, the MPUC approved Minnesota Power&#8217;s updated retail rate request resulting in a reduction in the annual interim rate increase to </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$32.2&#160;million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;beginning May&#160;1,&#160;2017. On February 28, 2017, Minnesota Power filed an update to its rate increase request, reducing its requested final retail rate increase from approximately </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$55 million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;to approximately </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$39&#160;million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;on an annualized basis. As of March&#160;31,&#160;2017, Minnesota Power has not received any indication that a refund of interim rates will be necessary. Management will continue to evaluate the need for a reserve for interim rates as the 2016 general rate case proceeds.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">As part of the 2016 Minnesota general rate request and through Minnesota Power&#8217;s 2017 remaining life depreciation petition filed on February&#160;1,&#160;2017, Minnesota Power is seeking an extension of the recovery period for Boswell to better reflect recent environmental investments at the facility and mitigate rate increases for our customers. If approved, annual depreciation expense will be reduced by approximately </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$25&#160;million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">.

In 2015, Minnesota Power filed a rate schedule petition with the MPUC for EITE customers and a corresponding rider for EITE cost recovery. In a March&#160;2016 order, the MPUC dismissed the petition without prejudice, providing Minnesota Power the option to refile the petition with additional information or file a new petition. In June 2016, Minnesota Power filed a revised EITE petition with the MPUC which included additional information on the net benefits analysis, limits on eligible customers and term lengths for the EITE discount. The MPUC approved a reduction in rates for EITE customers in a December&#160;2016 order and subsequently approved cost recovery in an order dated April&#160;20,&#160;2017. The rate adjustments are revenue and cash flow neutral to Minnesota Power.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">FERC-Approved Wholesale Rates. </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">Minnesota Power has </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">16</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;non-affiliated municipal customers in Minnesota.

No termination notice may be given for this contract prior to June&#160;30,&#160;2025. The electric service agreements with SWL&amp;P and another municipal customer are effective through January 31, 2020 and June&#160;30,&#160;2019, respectively. Under the agreement with SWL&amp;P, no termination notice may be given prior to April 30,&#160;2017. The other municipal customer provided termination notice for its contract in June&#160;2016. Minnesota Power currently provides approximately </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">29</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;MW of average monthly demand to this customer. The rates included in these </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">three</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;contracts are set each July&#160;1 based on a cost-based formula methodology, using estimated costs and a rate of return that is equal to Minnesota Power&#8217;s authorized rate of return for Minnesota retail customers (currently </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">10.38 percent</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">).

In a February&#160;2016 order, the MPUC approved Minnesota Power&#8217;s updated customer billing rates which allows Minnesota Power to charge retail customers on a current basis for the costs of constructing certain transmission facilities plus a return on the capital invested. As a result of the MPUC approval of the certificate of need for the GNTL in 2015, the project is eligible for cost recovery under the existing transmission cost recovery rider. Minnesota Power is funding the construction of the GNTL with Manitoba Hydro (see </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">Great Northern Transmission Line</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">), and anticipates including its portion of the investments and expenditures for the GNTL in future transmission cost recovery filings.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">Renewable Cost Recovery Rider.</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;Minnesota Power has an approved cost recovery rider in place for investments and expenditures related to Bison and the restoration and repair of Thomson. Updated customer billing rates for the renewable cost recovery rider were approved by the MPUC in a December&#160;2016 order, which allows Minnesota Power to charge retail customers on a current basis for the costs of constructing certain renewable investments plus a return on the capital invested. The approval is on a provisional basis pending the outcome of Minnesota Power&#8217;s 2016 general rate case.

As a result of the adverse regulatory outcome, Minnesota Power recorded a regulatory liability and a reduction in operating revenue of </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$15.0&#160;million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;in 2016. The North Dakota investment tax credits previously recognized as income tax credits in Corporate and Other were reversed in 2016 resulting in an </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$8.8 million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;charge to net income for the year ended December 31, 2016. In December 2016, Minnesota Power submitted a request for reconsideration with the MPUC. In an order dated February&#160;14,&#160;2017, the MPUC decided to reconsider its November&#160;2016 order and requested comments by June&#160;30,&#160;2017. </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">Prior to the November 2016 MPUC order, Minnesota Power accounted for North Dakota investment tax credits based on the long&#8209;standing regulatory precedents of stand-alone allocation methodology of accounting for income taxes. The stand-alone method provides that income taxes (and credits) are calculated as if Minnesota Power was the only entity included in ALLETE&#8217;s consolidated federal and unitary state income tax returns. Minnesota Power had recorded a regulatory liability for North Dakota investment tax credits generated by its jurisdictional activity and expected to be realized in the future. North Dakota investment tax credits attributable to ALLETE&#8217;s apportionment and income of ALLETE&#8217;s other subsidiaries were included in the ALLETE consolidated group. </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">Minnesota Power also has approval for current cost recovery of investments and expenditures related to compliance with the Minnesota Solar Energy Standard.

Updated customer billing rates for the environmental improvement rider were approved by the MPUC in a December 2016 order; however, in an order dated March&#160;22,&#160;2017, the MPUC approved a request by Minnesota Power to delay implementation of the updated rates until resolution of its 2016 general rate case.

In June 2016, SWL&amp;P filed a rate increase request with the PSCW requesting an average increase of </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">3.1 percent</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;for retail customers (</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">3.5 percent</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;increase in electric rates; </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">1.3 percent</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;decrease in natural gas rates; and </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">7.8</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#160;percent increase in water rates). The filing seeks an overall return on equity of </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">10.9 percent</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;and a </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">55 percent</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;equity ratio.

In 2015, a certificate of need was approved by the MPUC. Based on this order, Minnesota Power&#8217;s portion of the investments and expenditures for the project are eligible for cost recovery under its existing transmission cost recovery rider and are anticipated to be included in future transmission cost recovery filings. (See </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">Transmission Cost Recovery Rider</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">.) In 2015, the FERC approved our request to recover on construction work in progress related to the GNTL from Minnesota Power&#8217;s wholesale customers. In an April&#160;2016 order, the MPUC approved the route permit for the GNTL which largely follows Minnesota Power&#8217;s preferred route, including the international border crossing, and in November&#160;2016, the U.S. Department of Energy issued a presidential permit to cross the U.S.-Canadian border, which was the final major regulatory approval needed before construction in the U.S. could begin. Site clearing and pre-construction activities commenced in the first quarter of 2017 with construction expected to be completed in 2020. Total project cost in the U.S., including substation work, is estimated to be between </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$560 million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;and </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$710&#160;million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">, of which Minnesota Power&#8217;s portion is expected to be between </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$300 million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;and </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$350 million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">; the difference will be recovered from a subsidiary of Manitoba Hydro as contributions in aid of construction. Total project costs of </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$56.8 million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;have been incurred through March&#160;31,&#160;2017, of which </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$29.6 million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;has been recovered from a subsidiary of Manitoba Hydro.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">Manitoba Hydro must obtain regulatory and governmental approvals related to a new transmission line in Canada.

In June 2016, a federal administrative law judge ruled on the additional complaint proposing a further reduction in the base return on equity to </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">9.70 percent</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">, or </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">10.20 percent</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;including an incentive adder for participation in a regional transmission organization, subject to approval or adjustment by the FERC.

At least </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">10</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#160;percent of the </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">1.5 percent</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;mandate must be met by solar energy generated by or procured from solar photovoltaic devices with a nameplate capacity of 20 kW or less. Minnesota Power has </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">two</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;completed solar projects and another solar project is under development. In 2015, Minnesota Power filed for MPUC approval of a </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">10</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;MW utility scale solar project at the Camp Ripley Minnesota Army National Guard base and training facility near Little Falls, Minnesota. In a February 2016 order, the MPUC approved Camp Ripley as eligible to meet the solar energy standard and for current cost recovery, which was subsequently finalized by the MPUC in a December&#160;2016 order. Camp Ripley was completed in the fourth quarter of 2016. In 2015, Minnesota Power filed for MPUC approval of a community solar garden project in northeastern Minnesota, which is comprised of a </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">1</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;MW solar array to be owned and operated by a third party with the output purchased by Minnesota Power and a 40 kW solar array that is owned and operated by Minnesota Power. In a July 2016 order, the MPUC approved the community solar garden project and cost recovery, subject to certain compliance requirements. Minnesota Power believes these projects will meet approximately one-third of the overall mandate. Additionally, in an order dated February 10, 2017, the MPUC approved Minnesota Power&#8217;s proposal to increase the amount of solar rebates available for customer-sited solar installations and recover costs of the program through Minnesota Power&#8217;s renewable cost recovery rider. This proposal to incentivize customer-sited solar installations is expected to meet a portion of the required mandate related to solar photovoltaic devices with a nameplate capacity of 20&#160;kW or less. </font></div><div><br></div><div style="text-align:center;"><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:center;font-size:8pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:8pt;">ALLETE, Inc.

The Company has the option to prepay all or a portion of the Notes at its discretion, subject to a make-whole provision. The Notes are subject to additional terms and conditions which are customary for these types of transactions. Proceeds from the sale of the Notes will be used to redeem debt, fund corporate growth opportunities and/or for general corporate purposes.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;">Financial Covenants.</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;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. Our compliance with financial covenants is not dependent on debt ratings. The most restrictive financial covenant requires ALLETE&#160;to maintain a ratio of indebtedness to total capitalization (as the amounts are calculated in accordance with the respective long-term debt arrangements) of less than or equal to </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">0.65 to 1.00</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">, measured quarterly. As of </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;color:#000000;text-decoration:none;">March&#160;31,&#160;2017</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">, our ratio was approximately </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">0.43 to 1.00</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">. 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&#8217;s debt arrangements contain &#8220;cross-default&#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.

(See Note 6. Regulatory Matters.) In 2015, the FERC approved our request to recover on construction work in progress related to the GNTL from Minnesota Power&#8217;s wholesale customers. In an April&#160;2016 order, the MPUC approved the route permit for the GNTL which largely follows Minnesota Power&#8217;s preferred route, including the international border crossing, and in November&#160;2016, the U.S. Department of Energy issued a presidential permit to cross the U.S.-Canadian border, which was the final major regulatory approval needed before construction in the U.S. could begin. Site clearing and pre-construction activities commenced in the first quarter of 2017 with construction expected to be completed in 2020.

Minnesota Power received an additional NOV in 2011 alleging that two projects undertaken at Rapids Energy Center in 2004 and 2005 should have been reviewed under the NSR requirements and that the Rapids Energy Center&#8217;s Title V permit was violated. Minnesota Power reached a settlement with the EPA regarding these NOVs and entered into a Consent Decree which was approved by the U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota in&#160;2014. The Consent Decree provided for, among other requirements, more stringent emissions limits at all affected units, the option of refueling, retrofits or retirements at certain small coal units, and the addition of </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">200</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;MW of wind energy. Provisions of the Consent Decree require that, by no later than December 31, 2018, Boswell Units 1 and 2 must be retired, refueled, repowered, or emissions rerouted through existing emission control technology at Boswell. In October 2016, Minnesota Power announced that Boswell Units 1 and 2 will be retired in 2018 as the latest step in its </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">EnergyForward </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">strategic plan.

These allowances are allocated to facilities from each state&#8217;s annual budget, and can be bought and sold.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">Minnesota Power&#8217;s generation levels and emission rates in 2015 and 2016 were below its allowances.

The EPA published the final MATS rule in the Federal Register in&#160;2012, addressing such emissions from coal-fired utility units greater than 25 MW. There are currently 187 listed HAPs that the EPA is required to evaluate for establishment of MACT standards. In the final MATS rule, the EPA established categories of HAPs, including mercury, trace metals other than mercury, acid gases, dioxin/furans and organics other than dioxin/furans. The EPA also established emission limits for the first three categories of HAPs and work practice standards for the remaining categories. Affected sources were required to be in compliance with the rule by April 2015. States had the authority to grant sources a one-year extension. The MPCA approved Minnesota Power&#8217;s request for an extension of the date of compliance for the Boswell Unit 4 environmental upgrade to April 2016. Construction on the project to implement the Boswell Unit 4 mercury emissions reduction plan was completed in 2015. Boswell Unit 3 is also subject to the MATS rule; however, investments and compliance work completed at Boswell Unit 3, including emission reduction investments completed in 2009, meet the requirements of the MATS rule. The conversion of Laskin Units&#160;1 and 2 to natural gas in 2015 positioned those units for MATS compliance. </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">In 2015, the U.S. Supreme Court reversed and remanded an earlier U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit decision on the MATS rule. The U.S. Supreme Court ruled that it was unreasonable for the EPA to deem cost of compliance irrelevant in determining that regulation of emissions of hazardous air pollutants from power plants was &#8220;appropriate and necessary&#8221; under Section 112 of the Clean Air Act. The MATS rule remains in effect until the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit acts on the remand. In 2015, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit rejected a motion by utilities and states to vacate the MATS rule, instead ordering the rule to remain in effect while the EPA completes its review. In April 2016, the EPA announced its determination that the MATS rule is appropriate and necessary, even after considering cost of compliance. The outcome of these proceedings is not expected to have a material impact on Minnesota Power generation due to emission reduction obligations under the Minnesota Mercury Emissions Reduction Act and the Consent Decree.

Major existing sources had until January 2016, to achieve compliance with the final rule and July 2016, to perform initial compliance demonstrations. Minnesota Power&#8217;s Hibbard Renewable Energy Center and Rapids Energy Center are subject to this rule and are currently in compliance. Compliance consisted largely of adjustments to our operating practices; therefore, the costs for complying with the final rule were not material.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:bold;">National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS).</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;The EPA is required to review the NAAQS every five years. If the EPA determines that a state&#8217;s air quality is not in compliance with the NAAQS, the state is required to adopt plans describing how it will reduce emissions to attain the NAAQS. These state plans often include more stringent air emission limitations on sources of air pollutants than the NAAQS. Four NAAQS have either recently been revised or are currently proposed for revision, as described below.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">Ozone NAAQS. </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">The EPA has proposed more stringent control related to emissions that result in ground level ozone. In 2010, the EPA proposed to revise the 2008 eight-hour ozone standard of 75 parts per billion (ppb) and to adopt a secondary standard for the protection of sensitive vegetation from ozone-related damage. In 2015, the EPA published the final rule in the Federal Register revising the eight-hour ozone standard to 70 ppb with a secondary standard also set at 70 ppb. All areas of Minnesota currently meet the new standard based on the most recent available ambient monitoring data; however, some areas in the metropolitan Twin Cities and southwest portion of the state are close to exceeding the standard. As a result, voluntary efforts to reduce ozone continue in the state. </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">No</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;additional costs for compliance are anticipated at this time.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">Particulate Matter NAAQS. </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">The EPA finalized the Particulate Matter NAAQS in&#160;2006. Since then, the EPA has established more stringent 24-hour and annual average fine particulate matter (PM</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><sub style="vertical-align:bottom;line-height:120%;font-size:7pt">2.5</sub></font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">) standards; the 24-hour coarse particulate matter standard has remained unchanged. In 2012, the EPA issued a final rule implementing a more stringent annual PM</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><sub style="vertical-align:bottom;line-height:120%;font-size:7pt">2.5</sub></font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;standard, while retaining the current 24-hour PM</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><sub style="vertical-align:bottom;line-height:120%;font-size:7pt">2.5</sub></font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;standard.

New projects and permits must comply with the new standard, which is generally demonstrated by modeling at the facility level.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">Under the final rule, states will be responsible for additional PM</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><sub style="vertical-align:bottom;line-height:120%;font-size:7pt">2.5</sub></font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;monitoring, which will likely be accomplished by relocating or repurposing existing monitors. The EPA asked states to submit attainment designations by 2013, based on already available monitoring data, and issued designations of the 2012 revised primary annual fine particulate attainment status in&#160;2014. The EPA designated the entire state of Minnesota as unclassifiable/attainment; however, Minnesota sources may ultimately be required to reduce their emissions to assist with attainment in neighboring states. In September 2016, environmental groups filed a lawsuit against the EPA in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California alleging the EPA had failed to fully implement the PM</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><sub style="vertical-align:bottom;line-height:120%;font-size:7pt">2.5 </sub></font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">standards in 24 states, including Minnesota, by not enforcing states&#8217; submittals of required infrastructure SIPs for the 2012 PM</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><sub style="vertical-align:bottom;line-height:120%;font-size:7pt">2.5 </sub></font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">NAAQS.

In 2012, the MPCA notified Minnesota Power that modeling had been suspended as a result of the EPA&#8217;s announcement that the SIP submittals would not require modeling demonstrations for states, such as Minnesota, where ambient monitors indicate compliance with the standard. The EPA notified states that their infrastructure SIPs for maintaining attainment of the standard were required to be submitted to the EPA for approval by 2013; however, the State of Minnesota delayed completing the documents pending EPA guidance to states for preparing the SIP submittal. </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">In 2013, the EPA provided guidance to states regarding implementation of the one-hour NO</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><sub style="vertical-align:bottom;line-height:120%;font-size:7pt">2</sub></font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;NAAQS and in&#160;2014, as clarified in 2015, the MPCA submitted a SIP revision to the EPA addressing the infrastructure requirements of Sections 110(a)(1) and 110(a)(2) of the Clean Air Act in regards to the one-hour NO</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><sub style="vertical-align:bottom;line-height:120%;font-size:7pt">2</sub></font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;and SO</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><sub style="vertical-align:bottom;line-height:120%;font-size:7pt">2</sub></font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;NAAQS, among other standards.

The guidance stated that the project-specific, top&#8209;down Best Available Control Technology (BACT) determination process used for other pollutants will also be used to determine BACT for GHG emissions. Through sector-specific white papers, the EPA also provided examples and technical summaries of GHG emission control technologies and techniques the EPA considers available or likely to be available to sources. It is possible that these control technologies could be determined to be BACT on a project-by-project basis.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">In 2014, the U.S. Supreme Court invalidated the aspect of the Tailoring Rule that established higher permitting thresholds for GHG than for other pollutants subject to PSD. However, the court also upheld the EPA&#8217;s power to require BACT for GHG from sources already subject to regulation under PSD. Minnesota Power&#8217;s coal-fired generating facilities are already subject to regulation under PSD, so we anticipate that ultimately PSD for GHG will apply to our facilities, but the timing of the promulgation of a replacement for the Tailoring Rule is uncertain. The PSD applies to existing facilities only when they undertake a major modification that increases emissions. At this time, we are unable to predict the compliance costs that we might incur.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">In October 2016, the EPA published a proposed rule in the Federal Register to revise its PSD and Title V regulatory provisions concerning GHG emissions. In this proposed rule, the EPA proposes to amend its regulations to clarify that a source&#8217;s obligation to obtain a PSD or Title V permit is triggered only by non-GHG pollutants. If the PSD or Title V permitting requirements are triggered by non-GHG, NSR pollutants, then these programs will also apply to the source&#8217;s GHG emissions. The proposed rule, as currently written, is not expected to have a material impact on the Title V permitting for current operations. It is uncertain as to how the Title V permitting requirements will be affected by the March 28, 2017, Executive Order titled Promoting Energy Independence and Economic Growth.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">In 2014, the EPA announced a proposed rule under Section 111(d) of the Clean Air Act for existing power plants entitled &#8220;Carbon Pollution Emission Guidelines for Existing Stationary Sources: Electric Generating Units&#8221;, also referred to as the Clean Power Plan (CPP). The EPA issued the final CPP in 2015, together with a proposed federal implementation plan and a model rule for emissions trading. Petitions for review of the rule were filed with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit. In February&#160;2016, the U.S. Supreme Court issued an order staying the effectiveness of the rule until after the appellate court process is complete. In September 2016, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia heard oral arguments and is currently deliberating. The EPA is precluded from enforcing the CPP while the U.S. Supreme Court stay is in force; however, the MPCA has been holding a series of meetings on the CPP for educational and planning purposes in the interim. Minnesota Power has been actively involved in these MPCA meetings, and is closely monitoring the appeals process.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">If upheld, the CPP would establish uniform CO</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><sub style="vertical-align:bottom;line-height:120%;font-size:7pt">2</sub></font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;emission performance rates for existing fossil fuel-fired and natural gas-fired combined cycle generating units, setting state-specific goals for CO</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><sub style="vertical-align:bottom;line-height:120%;font-size:7pt">2</sub></font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;emissions from the power sector. State goals were determined based on CPP source-specific performance emission rates and each state&#8217;s mix of power plants. The EPA maintains such goals are achievable if a state undertakes a combination of measures across its power sector that constitutes the EPA&#8217;s guideline for a Best System of Emission Reductions (BSER). BSER is comprised of three building blocks: 1) improved fossil fuel power plant efficiency, 2) increased reliance on low-emitting power sources by generating more electricity from existing natural gas combined cycle units, and 3) building more zero- and low-emitting power sources, including renewable energy. States may also choose to include avoided CO</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><sub style="vertical-align:bottom;line-height:120%;font-size:7pt">2</sub></font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;emissions from customer energy efficiency measures for credit towards meeting state goals. The regulatory review initiated by the March 28, 2017, Executive Order titled Promoting Energy Independence and Economic Growth is directed to include Section 111(b) and 111(d) CPP provisions. In addition, the EPA has filed a motion with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit to hold CPP-related litigation in abeyance while the EPA is reviewing the rule. Minnesota Power is monitoring developments with respect to the CPP rule and related matters.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">State goals under the CPP are expressed as both mass-based and rate-based, and include interim goals to be met over the years 2022 through 2029, as well as a final goal to be met in 2030 and thereafter. Under the original schedule for the CPP, each state would have been required to develop a SIP by September 2016, or by September 6, 2018, if granted an extension. Due to the U.S. Supreme Court order staying the effectiveness of the CPP, those SIP submittal dates are not currently in effect. If the CPP is upheld at the completion of the appellate court process, all of the CPP regulatory deadlines are expected to be reset based on the length of time that the appeals process takes.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div><br></div><div style="text-align:center;"><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:center;font-size:8pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:8pt;">ALLETE, Inc.

Minnesota Power is currently evaluating the CPP as it relates to the State of Minnesota as well as its potential impact on the Company and is actively discussing potential compliance scenarios with regulatory agencies and in public stakeholder meetings. Minnesota has already initiated several measures consistent with those called for under the CAP and CPP. Minnesota Power is implementing its </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">EnergyForward</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;strategic plan that provides for significant emission reductions and diversifying its electricity generation mix to include more renewable and natural gas energy.

We have obtained all necessary NPDES permits, including NPDES storm water permits for applicable facilities, to conduct our operations.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">Clean Water Act - Aquatic Organisms.</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;In 2011, the EPA announced proposed regulations under Section&#160;316(b) of the Clean Water Act that set standards applicable to cooling water intake structures for the protection of aquatic organisms. The proposed regulations would require existing large power plants and manufacturing facilities that withdraw greater than 25&#160;percent of water from adjacent water bodies for cooling purposes, and have a design intake flow of greater than 2 million gallons per day, to limit the number of aquatic organisms that are impacted by the facility&#8217;s intake structure or cooling system. The Section 316(b) rule was effective in 2014. The Section 316(b) standards will be implemented through NPDES permits issued to the covered facilities with compliance timing dependent on individual NPDES renewal schedules. No NPDES permits for Minnesota Power generating facilities have been re-issued containing Section 316(b) requirements since the final rule was published, so at this time we are unable to determine the final cost of compliance. Should the MPCA require significant modifications to Minnesota Power&#8217;s intake structures, a preliminary assessment indicates costs of compliance up to </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$15 million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;over the next 5 years. Minnesota Power would seek recovery of any additional costs through a general rate case.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">Steam Electric Power Generating Effluent Guidelines. </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">In 2015, the EPA issued revised federal effluent limit guidelines (ELG) for steam electric power generating stations under the Clean Water Act.&#160;It sets effluent limits and prescribes BACT for several wastewater streams, including flue gas desulphurization (FGD) water and coal combustion landfill leachate. The ELG rule also prohibits the discharge of bottom and fly ash contact waters. Compliance with the final rule is required between November&#160;1,&#160;2018, and December&#160;31,&#160;2023. </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">We are reviewing the final rule and evaluating its potential impact on Minnesota Power&#8217;s operations, primarily at Boswell. Boswell currently discharges bottom ash contact water through its NPDES permit, and also has a closed-loop FGD system that does not currently discharge, but may do so in the future. Under the final ELG rule, bottom ash discharge would not be allowed and bottom ash contact water would either need to be re-used in a closed-loop process, routed to a FGD scrubber, or the bottom ash handling system would need to be converted to a dry process. If the FGD wastewater is discharged in the future, it would require additional wastewater treatment. Efforts have been underway at Boswell for several years to reduce the amount of water discharged and evaluate potential re-use options in its plant processes. Additional efforts are underway to determine if land application of certain wastewater streams under a state disposal system may be feasible.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">On April 12, 2017, the EPA announced that it would reconsider the final ELG rule and administratively stay the compliance dates set forth in the rule.&#160;The EPA has received seven petitions for review of the ELG rule, which were consolidated in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit in late 2015. The EPA has indicated they will also file a motion requesting that court to hold litigation challenging the ELG rule in abeyance while the EPA reconsiders the rule. All pending deadlines under the ELG rule will be stayed while the EPA re-examines it.&#160;Under the ELG rule schedule, required compliance activity deadlines could have been in place as soon as November 1, 2018. These deadlines could have included prescriptive wastewater treatment technology installation, as well as a ban on bottom ash contact water discharges.&#160;If the EPA&#8217;s reconsideration results in the rule being revised or rescinded, the authority to regulate bottom ash transport water and FGD wastewater would fall under existing Effluent Guidelines Limits and state resource agency purview.&#160; &#160;</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div><br></div><div style="text-align:center;"><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:center;font-size:8pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:8pt;">ALLETE, Inc.

ALLETE Clean Energy currently owns and operates, in four states, approximately 535 MW of nameplate capacity wind energy generation that is from PSAs under various durations. In addition, ALLETE Clean Energy constructed and sold a 107&#160;MW wind energy facility in 2015. On January 3, 2017, ALLETE Clean Energy announced that it will develop another wind energy facility of up to 50 MW after securing a 25-year PSA with Montana-Dakota Utilities. The PSA includes an option for Montana-Dakota Utilities to purchase the facility upon completion; construction is expected to begin in 2018. On March&#160;16,&#160;2017, ALLETE Clean Energy announced it will build, own and operate a separate 100&#160;MW wind energy facility pursuant to a 20-year PSA with Northern States Power; construction is expected to begin in late 2018 and is subject to regulatory approvals.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;">U.S. Water Services </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">provides integrated water management for industry by combining chemical, equipment, engineering and service for customized solutions to reduce water and energy usage, and improve efficiency.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;padding-left:54px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;">Corporate and Other</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;">&#32;</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">is comprised of BNI Energy, our coal mining operations in North Dakota, ALLETE Properties, our legacy Florida real estate investment, other business development and corporate expenditures, unallocated interest expense, a small amount of non-rate base generation, approximately </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">5,000</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;acres of land in Minnesota, and earnings on cash and investments.</font></div><div><br></div><div style="text-align:center;"><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:center;font-size:8pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:8pt;">ALLETE, Inc.

Net income increased primarily due to higher net income at Minnesota Power resulting from the implementation of interim retail rates on January 1, 2017, and higher kWh sales primarily due to increased industrial sales. These increases were mostly offset by higher operating and maintenance, depreciation, property tax, and interest expenses. Our equity earnings in ATC for the </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">three months ended March&#160;31,&#160;2017</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">, increased $0.7 million after-tax reflecting a higher investment balance and period over period changes in ATC&#8217;s estimate of a refund liability related to MISO return on equity complaints.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;">ALLETE Clean Energy</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;net income attributable to ALLETE was </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$6.7 million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;for the </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">three months ended March&#160;31,&#160;2017</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">, compared to </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$6.1 million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;for the same period in </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">2016</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">.

The net loss in 2017 includes an after-tax expense of $0.2 million for the settlement of an EPA investigation, and lower operating expenses. (See Note 13. Commitments, Guarantees and Contingencies.) The net loss in 2016 included $0.3&#160;million of after-tax expense recognized as cost of sales related to purchase accounting for inventories and sales backlog. U.S. Water Services sells certain products which are seasonal in nature, with higher demand typically realized in warmer months; generally, lower sales occur in the first quarter of each year.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;">Corporate and Other </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">net loss attributable to ALLETE was </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$0.9 million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;for the </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">three months ended March&#160;31,&#160;2017</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">, compared to a net loss of </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$2.1 million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;for the same period in </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">2016</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">.

If U.S. Water Services fails to meet expected cash flow forecasts by a nominal margin or there is an increase in interest rates that has a negative impact on the discount rate used in the Company&#8217;s valuation under the income approach, the results of our future tests could result in an impairment of goodwill; our next annual impairment test will occur in the fourth quarter of 2017.

Keeping the cost of energy production competitive enables Minnesota Power to effectively compete in the wholesale power markets and minimizes retail rate increases to help maintain customer viability. As part of maintaining cost competitiveness, Minnesota Power intends to reduce its exposure to possible future carbon and GHG legislation by reshaping its generation portfolio, over time, to reduce its reliance on coal. (See </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">EnergyForward.</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">) We will monitor and review proposed environmental regulations and may challenge those that add considerable cost with limited environmental benefit. Minnesota Power will continue to pursue customer growth opportunities and cost recovery rider approvals for transmission, renewable and environmental investments, as well as work with regulators to earn a fair rate of return.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div><a name="s486D60FB5ED0120632D8800863C67F20"></a></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:bold;">Regulatory Matters.</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;Entities within our Regulated Operations segment are under the jurisdiction of the MPUC, FERC, PSCW and NDPSC.

The rate filing seeks a return on equity of 10.25&#160;percent and a 53.8 percent equity ratio. On an annualized basis, the requested final rate increase would have generated approximately $55&#160;million in additional revenue. In December&#160;2016, Minnesota Power filed a request to modify its original interim rate proposal reducing its requested interim rate increase to $34.7 million from the original request of approximately $49 million due to a change in its electric sales forecast. In December&#160;2016 orders, the MPUC accepted the November 2016 filing as complete and authorized an annual interim rate increase of $34.7 million beginning January&#160;1,&#160;2017. </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">On February&#160;23,&#160;2017, Minnesota Power filed an additional request to further reduce its requested interim rate increase. In an order dated April 13, 2017, the MPUC approved Minnesota Power&#8217;s updated retail rate request resulting in a reduction in the annual interim rate increase to $32.2 million beginning May&#160;1,&#160;2017. On February 28, 2017, Minnesota Power filed an update to its rate increase request, reducing its requested final retail rate increase from approximately $55 million to approximately $39&#160;million on an annualized basis. As of March&#160;31,&#160;2017, Minnesota Power has not received any indication that a refund of interim rates will be necessary.

If approved, annual depreciation expense will be reduced by approximately $25 million.

Minnesota Power provides electric service to six taconite facilities capable of producing up to approximately 41 million tons of taconite pellets annually. Taconite pellets produced in Minnesota are primarily shipped to North American steel making facilities that are part of the integrated steel industry. Steel produced from these North American facilities is used primarily in the manufacture of automobiles, appliances, pipe and tube products for the gas and oil industry, and in the construction industry. Historically, less than five percent of Minnesota taconite production is exported outside of North America. Minnesota Power also provides electric service to three iron concentrate facilities capable of producing up to approximately 4&#160;million tons of iron concentrate per year. Iron concentrate is used in the production of taconite pellets. These iron concentrate facilities are owned in whole, or in part, by ERP Iron Ore and are not currently operating.

The American Iron and Steel Institute, an association of North American steel producers, reported that U.S. raw steel production operated at approximately </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">73 percent</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;of capacity during the </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">first three months of 2017</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;compared to </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">70 percent</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;in the </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">first&#160;three&#160;months&#160;of&#160;2016</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">. The World Steel Association, an association of over 160 steel producers, national and regional steel industry associations, and steel research institutes representing approximately 85 percent of world steel production, projected U.S. steel consumption in 2017 will increase by approximately 3&#160;percent compared to 2016. </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">Minnesota Power&#8217;s taconite customers may experience annual variations in production levels due to such factors as economic conditions, short-term demand changes or maintenance outages. We estimate that a one million ton change in Minnesota Power&#8217;s taconite customers&#8217; production would impact our annual earnings per share by approximately $0.03, net of expected power marketing sales at current prices. Changes in wholesale electric prices or customer contractual demand nominations could impact this estimate. Minnesota Power proactively sells power in the wholesale power markets that is temporarily not required by industrial customers to optimize the value of its generating facilities. Long-term reductions in taconite production or a permanent shut down of a taconite customer may lead Minnesota Power to file a general rate case to recover lost revenue. </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;text-decoration:underline;">USS Corporation</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">. In the second quarter of 2015, USS Corporation temporarily idled its Minnesota Ore Operations - Keetac plant in Keewatin, Minnesota, and a portion of its Minnesota Ore Operations - Minntac plant in Mountain Iron, Minnesota. These actions were due to high inventory levels and ongoing adjustment of its steel producing operations throughout North America. Global influences in the market, including a higher level of imports, unfairly traded products and reduced steel prices, were cited as having an impact. USS Corporation returned its Minntac plant to full production in the third quarter of 2015, and in the first quarter of 2017, USS Corporation restarted its Keetac plant. Both facilities are Large Power Customers of Minnesota Power. USS Corporation has the capability to produce approximately 5&#160;million tons and 15 million tons of taconite annually at its Keetac and Minntac plants, respectively.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;text-decoration:underline;">ERP Iron Ore / Magnetation</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">.</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;In 2015, Magnetation announced that it had filed voluntary petitions for reorganization under Chapter&#160;11 of the Bankruptcy Code in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Minnesota, citing the significant decrease in global iron ore prices and its existing capital structure. In January 2016, Magnetation idled its Plant 2 facility in Bovey, Minnesota. In October&#160;2016, the bankruptcy court approved plans to idle Magnetation&#8217;s Plant 4 facility near Grand Rapids, Minnesota, and its pellet plant in Reynolds, Indiana, as well as terminate Magnetation&#8217;s pellet purchase agreement with AK Steel Corporation. The company subsequently idled the facilities and stated it was preserving the plants and their value for a potential buyer. On January&#160;30,&#160;2017, ERP Iron Ore purchased substantially all of Magnetation&#8217;s assets pursuant to an asset purchase agreement approved by the bankruptcy court. Although we cannot predict whether the facilities will be restarted, Minnesota Power would serve the Plant 2 and Plant 4 facilities through ERP Iron Ore&#8217;s assumption of the existing electric service agreement.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;text-decoration:underline;">Paper, Pulp and Secondary Wood Products</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">.

Mesabi Metallics filed for bankruptcy protection in July 2016, under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware. The debtors initiated an auction process in Bankruptcy Court and at an April&#160;26,&#160;2017 hearing announced Chippewa Capital Partners (Chippewa) as the successful bidder.

Minnesota Power has a long-term contract with PolyMet, which is planning to start a new copper-nickel and precious metal (non-ferrous) mining operation in northeastern Minnesota. In 2015, PolyMet announced the completion of the final EIS by state and federal agencies, which was subsequently published in the Federal Register and Minnesota Environmental Quality Board Monitor. The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) issued its Record of Decision in March 2016, finding the final EIS adequate. The 30-day period allowed by law to challenge the Record of Decision passed without any legal challenges being filed. In July 2016, PolyMet submitted applications for water-related permits with the State of Minnesota, and in August 2016, an application for an air quality permit was submitted to the MPCA. In November 2016, PolyMet submitted a state permit to mine application to the DNR detailing its operational plans for the mine. The final EIS also requires Records of Decision by the federal agencies, which are expected in 2017, before final action can be taken on the required federal permits to construct and operate the mining operation. On January 9, 2017, the U.S. Forest Service signed the Final Record of Decision authorizing a land exchange with PolyMet, which upon completion of title transfer will result in PolyMet obtaining surface rights to land needed to develop its mining operation. Minnesota Power could supply between 45&#160;MW and 50 MW of load under a ten-year power supply contract that would begin upon start-up of operations.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div><a name="s4CA709D986DCF462018280088557F4FF"></a></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:bold;">EnergyForward.</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;In 2013, Minnesota Power announced </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">EnergyForward</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">, a strategic plan for assuring reliability, protecting affordability and further improving environmental performance.

In a February 2016 order, the MPUC approved Camp Ripley as eligible to meet the solar energy standard and for current cost recovery, which was subsequently finalized by the MPUC in a December&#160;2016 order. Camp Ripley was completed in the fourth quarter of 2016. In 2015, Minnesota Power filed for MPUC approval of a community solar garden project in northeastern Minnesota, which is comprised of a </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">1</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;MW solar array to be owned and operated by a third party with the output purchased by Minnesota Power and a 40 kW solar array that is owned and operated by Minnesota Power. In a July 2016 order, the MPUC approved the community solar garden project and cost recovery, subject to certain compliance requirements. Minnesota Power believes these projects will meet approximately one-third of the overall mandate. Additionally, in an order dated February 10, 2017, the MPUC approved Minnesota Power&#8217;s proposal to increase the amount of solar rebates available for customer-sited solar installations and recover costs of the program through Minnesota Power&#8217;s renewable cost recovery rider. This proposal to incentivize customer-sited solar installations is expected to meet a portion of the required mandate related to solar photovoltaic devices with a nameplate capacity of 20&#160;kW or less. </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">Minnesota Power has approval for current cost recovery of investments and expenditures related to compliance with the Minnesota Solar Energy Standard. Currently, there is no approved customer billing rate for solar costs. </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;text-decoration:underline;">Wind Energy</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">. </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">Minnesota Power&#8217;s wind energy facilities consist of Bison (497 MW) located in North Dakota, and Taconite Ridge (25 MW) located in northeastern Minnesota. Minnesota Power also has two long-term wind PPAs with an affiliate of NextEra Energy, Inc. to purchase the output from Oliver Wind&#160;I (50&#160;MW) and Oliver Wind II (48 MW) located in North Dakota. </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">Minnesota Power uses the 465-mile, 250-kV DC transmission line that runs from Center, North Dakota, to Duluth, Minnesota, to transport increasing amounts of wind energy from North Dakota while gradually phasing out coal-based electricity delivered to its system over this transmission line from Square Butte&#8217;s lignite coal-fired generating unit. The DC transmission line capacity can be increased if renewable energy or transmission needs justify investments to upgrade the line.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">Updated customer billing rates for the renewable cost recovery rider, which includes investments and expenditures related to Bison, were approved by the MPUC in a December&#160;2016 order, which allows Minnesota Power to charge retail customers on a current basis for the costs of constructing certain renewable investments plus a return on the capital invested. The approval is on a provisional basis pending the outcome of Minnesota Power&#8217;s 2016 general rate case.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">In a November&#160;2016 order, the MPUC directed Minnesota Power to attribute all North Dakota investment tax credits realized from Bison to Minnesota Power regulated retail customers. As a result of the adverse regulatory outcome, Minnesota Power recorded a regulatory liability and a reduction in operating revenue of </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$15.0&#160;million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;in 2016. The North Dakota investment tax credits previously recognized as income tax credits in Corporate and Other were reversed in 2016 resulting in an </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$8.8 million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;charge to net income for the year ended December&#160;31,&#160;2016. In December 2016, Minnesota Power submitted a request for reconsideration with the MPUC. In an order dated February&#160;14,&#160;2017, the MPUC decided to reconsider its November&#160;2016 order and requested comments by June&#160;30,&#160;2017.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">Prior to the November 2016 MPUC order, Minnesota Power accounted for North Dakota investment tax credits based on the long&#8209;standing regulatory precedents of stand-alone allocation methodology of accounting for income taxes. The stand-alone method provides that income taxes (and credits) are calculated as if Minnesota Power was the only entity included in ALLETE&#8217;s consolidated federal and unitary state income tax returns. Minnesota Power had recorded a regulatory liability for North Dakota investment tax credits generated by its jurisdictional activity and expected to be realized in the future. North Dakota investment tax credits attributable to ALLETE&#8217;s apportionment and income of ALLETE&#8217;s other subsidiaries were included in the ALLETE consolidated group. </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;text-decoration:underline;">Manitoba Hydro</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">.</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;Minnesota Power has five long-term PPAs with Manitoba Hydro. The first PPA expires in May 2020. Under this agreement, Minnesota Power is purchasing 50 MW 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. Under the second PPA, Minnesota Power is purchasing surplus energy through April 2022. This energy-only agreement primarily consists of surplus hydro energy on Manitoba Hydro&#8217;s system that is delivered to Minnesota Power on a non-firm basis.&#160;The pricing is based on forward market prices. Under this agreement, Minnesota Power will purchase at least one million MWh of energy over the contract term.</font></div><div><br></div><div style="text-align:center;"><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:center;font-size:8pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:8pt;">ALLETE, Inc.

This PPA provides for Minnesota Power to purchase 250&#160;MW of capacity and energy from Manitoba Hydro for 15 years beginning in 2020. The agreement is subject to construction of additional transmission capacity between Manitoba and the U.S., along with construction of new hydroelectric generating capacity in Manitoba. (See </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">Transmission &#8211; Great Northern Transmission Line</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">.)

As a result, Minnesota Power and Manitoba Hydro proposed construction of the GNTL, an approximately </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">220</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">-mile </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">500</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">-kV transmission line between Manitoba and Minnesota&#8217;s Iron Range in order to strengthen the electric grid, enhance regional reliability and promote a greater exchange of sustainable energy.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">In 2015, a certificate of need was approved by the MPUC. Based on this order, Minnesota Power&#8217;s portion of the investments and expenditures for the project are eligible for cost recovery under its existing transmission cost recovery rider and are anticipated to be included in future transmission cost recovery filings. (See Note 6. Regulatory Matters.) In 2015, the FERC approved our request to recover on construction work in progress related to the GNTL from Minnesota Power&#8217;s wholesale customers. In an April&#160;2016 order, the MPUC approved the route permit for the GNTL which largely follows Minnesota Power&#8217;s preferred route, including the international border crossing, and in November&#160;2016, the U.S. Department of Energy issued a presidential permit to cross the U.S.-Canadian border, which was the final major regulatory approval needed before construction in the U.S. could begin. Site clearing and pre-construction activities commenced in the first quarter of 2017 with construction expected to be completed in 2020. Total project cost in the U.S., including substation work, is estimated to be between </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$560 million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;and </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$710&#160;million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">, of which Minnesota Power&#8217;s portion is expected to be between </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$300 million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;and </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$350 million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">; the difference will be recovered from a subsidiary of Manitoba Hydro as contributions in aid of construction. Total project costs of </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$56.8 million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;have been incurred through March&#160;31,&#160;2017, of which </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$29.6 million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;has been recovered from a subsidiary of Manitoba Hydro.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">Manitoba Hydro must obtain regulatory and governmental approvals related to a new transmission line in Canada.

At this time, ALLETE Clean Energy expects acquisitions will be primarily wind or solar facilities in North America. ALLETE Clean Energy is also targeting the development of new facilities up to 200 MW each, which will have long-term PSAs in place for the output or may be sold upon completion. Federal production tax credit qualification is important to development project economics, and ALLETE Clean Energy invested approximately $100 million in equipment in late 2016 to meet production tax credit safe harbor provisions.</font></div><div><br></div><div style="text-align:center;"><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:center;font-size:8pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:8pt;">ALLETE, Inc.

provides integrated water management for industry by combining chemical, equipment, engineering and service for customized solutions to reduce water and energy usage and improve efficiency. U.S. Water Services is located in 49&#160;states and Canada, and has an established base of approximately 4,800&#160;customers. U.S. Water Services differentiates itself from the competition by developing synergies between established solutions in engineering, equipment and chemical water treatment, and helping customers achieve efficient and sustainable use of their water and energy systems. U.S. Water Services is a leading provider to the biofuels industry, and also serves the food and beverage, industrial, power generation, and midstream oil and gas industries, among others. U.S. Water Services principally relies upon recurring revenues from a diverse mix of industrial customers. U.S. Water Services sells certain products which are seasonal in nature, with higher demand typically realized in warmer months; generally, lower sales occur in the first quarter of each year. </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">Our strategy is to grow U.S. Water Services&#8217; presence in North America by adding customers, products and new geographies. We believe water scarcity and a growing emphasis on conservation will continue to drive significant growth in the industrial, commercial and governmental sectors leading to organic revenue growth for U.S. Water Services. U.S. Water Services also expects to pursue periodic strategic tuck-in acquisitions with a purchase price in the $10 million to $50 million range. Priority will be given to acquisitions which expand its geographic reach, add new technology, or deepen its capabilities to serve its expanding customer base. </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div><a name="sF1C8DF1499FADAE06C4480088651E9B3"></a></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;">Corporate and Other.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">BNI Energy.</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;">&#160;</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">BNI Energy anticipates selling 4.6 million tons of coal in </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">2017</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;(3.8 million tons were sold in </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">2016</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">) and has sold 1.2&#160;million tons for the </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">three months ended March&#160;31,&#160;2017</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;(1.2 million tons were sold for the </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">three&#160;months ended March&#160;31,&#160;2016</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">).

ALLETE Properties&#8217; major projects in Florida are Town Center at Palm Coast and Palm Coast Park, with approximately 4,100 acres combined of land available-for-sale.

In 2015, the Company reevaluated its strategy related to the real estate assets of ALLETE Properties in response to market conditions and transaction activity. The revised strategy incorporated the possibility of a bulk sale of its entire portfolio. Proceeds will be strategically deployed to support growth in our energy infrastructure and related services businesses.

On an ongoing basis, ALLETE has tax credits and other tax adjustments that reduce the combined statutory rate to the effective tax rate. These tax credits and adjustments historically have included items such as investment tax credits, production tax credits, AFUDC-Equity, depletion, as well as other items. The annual effective rate can also be impacted by such items as changes in income before non-controlling interest and income taxes, state and federal tax law changes that become effective during the year, business combinations, tax planning initiatives and resolution of prior years&#8217; tax matters. We expect our effective tax rate to be approximately 20&#160;percent for </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">2017</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;primarily due to federal production tax credits as a result of wind energy generation. We also expect that our effective tax rate will be lower than the combined statutory rate over the next eight years due to production tax credits attributable to our wind energy generation.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div><a name="s8FDCE38788002BE8CEFC80086934FE7A"></a></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;">LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;">Liquidity Position.</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#32;ALLETE is well-positioned to meet the Company&#8217;s liquidity needs.

Minnesota Power&#8217;s exposure to price risk for these commodities is significantly mitigated by the current ratemaking process and regulatory framework, which allows recovery of fuel costs in excess of those included in base rates. Conversely, costs below those in base rates result in a credit to our ratepayers. SWL&amp;P&#8217;s exposure to price risk for natural gas is significantly mitigated by the current ratemaking process and regulatory framework, which allows the commodity cost to be passed through to customers. We seek to prudently manage our customers&#8217; exposure to price risk by entering into contracts of various durations and terms for the purchase of power and coal and related transportation costs (Minnesota Power) and natural gas (SWL&amp;P).</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;">POWER MARKETING</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">Minnesota Power&#8217;s power marketing activities consist of: (1) purchasing energy in the wholesale market to serve its regulated service territory when energy requirements exceed generation output; and (2) selling excess available energy and purchased power.

earnings</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">DULUTH, Minn. - ALLETE, Inc. (NYSE: ALE) today reported first quarter 2017 earnings of 97 cents per share on net income of $49.0&#160;million and operating revenue of $365.6 million. Last year&#8217;s results were 93 cents per share on net income of $45.9 million and operating revenue of $333.8 million.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#8220;It has been a tremendous start to 2017 as ALLETE begins the year with solid financial results and significant progress with several key growth initiatives. As previously disclosed, ALLETE Clean Energy has made a strategic investment of approximately $100 million in federal tax credit qualified turbines. This investment further positions ALLETE Clean Energy with additional growth opportunities as evidenced by two recently announced wind projects; a project expansion of up to 50 megawatts for Montana-Dakota Utilities Co. and a new 100 megawatt wind energy facility to be built and operated to service a long term PPA with Xcel Energy Inc. We anticipate additional future investment opportunities as these turbines have added to an already strong deal flow pipeline for ALLETE Clean Energy. Minnesota Power and Superior Water, Light and Power continue to move forward with their respective rate reviews in support of earning a fair return on their investments to serve customers,&#8221; said ALLETE Chairman, President and CEO Al Hodnik. &#8220;These accomplishments and our positioning initiatives over the past several years will benefit our stakeholders this year and beyond.&#8221;</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">ALLETE&#8217;s Regulated Operations segment, which includes Minnesota Power, Superior Water, Light and Power, and the Company&#8217;s investment in the American Transmission Co. (ATC), recorded net income of $43.5 million, an increase of $1.1&#160;million over 2016 net income. Earnings increased primarily due to higher net income at Minnesota Power resulting from the implementation of interim retail rates on January 1, 2017, and kilowatt-hour sales primarily due to increased industrial sales. These increases were mostly offset by higher operating and maintenance, depreciation, property tax, and interest expenses. Our equity earnings in ATC increased $0.7 million after-tax, attributable to a larger investment balance and period over period changes in ATC&#8217;s estimate of a refund liability related to MISO return on equity complaints.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">ALLETE&#8217;s Energy Infrastructure and Related Services businesses, which include ALLETE Clean Energy and U.S. Water Services, recorded net income of $6.7 million and a net loss of $0.3 million, respectively. Earnings at ALLETE Clean Energy increased $0.6 million primarily due the absence of a minority interest acquired in April 2016. U.S. Water&#8217;s results improved by $0.2 million primarily due to lower amortization expense related to purchase accounting adjustments from the 2015 acquisition, and lower operating expenses. Earnings at U.S. Water reflect results from selling certain products which are seasonal in nature, with higher demand typically realized in warmer months; generally, lower sales occur in the first quarter of each year.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">Corporate and Other, which includes BNI Energy and ALLETE Properties, posted a net loss of $0.9 million for the quarter, compared to a net loss of $2.1 million in 2016. The net loss in 2017 decreased primarily due to lower accretion expense resulting from the contingent consideration liability. </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">Earnings per share for the quarter was diluted by 2 cents due to additional shares of common stock outstanding as of March&#160;31,&#160;2017.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">ALLETE will host a conference call and webcast at 10 a.m. Eastern Time this morning to discuss details of its financial performance.

A "non-GAAP financial measure" is defined as a numerical measure of a company's financial performance, financial position or cash flows that excludes (or includes) amounts that are included in (or excluded from) the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in the company's financial statements</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">Non-GAAP financial measures utilized by the Company include presentations of earnings (loss) per share. ALLETE's management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors by removing the effect of variances in GAAP reported results of operations that are not indicative of changes in the fundamental earnings power of the Company's operations. Management believes that the presentation of the non-GAAP financial measures is appropriate and enables investors and analysts to more accurately compare the company's ongoing financial performance over the periods presented.</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;">&#32;</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font

These include the GNTL, investments to enhance our own transmission facilities, investments in other transmission assets (individually or in combination with others) and our investment in ATC. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;"&gt;Great Northern Transmission Line.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; As a condition of the &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;250&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;-MW long-term PPA entered into with Manitoba Hydro, construction of additional transmission capacity is required. As a result, Minnesota Power and Manitoba Hydro proposed construction of the GNTL, an approximately &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;220&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;-mile &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;500&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;-kV transmission line between Manitoba and Minnesota&amp;#8217;s Iron Range in order to strengthen the electric grid, enhance regional reliability and promote a greater exchange of sustainable energy.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;"&gt;NOTE 13.&amp;#160;COMMITMENTS, GUARANTEES AND CONTINGENCIES (Continued)&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;"&gt;Transmission (Continued)&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;In 2015, a certificate of need was approved by the MPUC. Based on this order, Minnesota Power&amp;#8217;s portion of the investments and expenditures for the project are eligible for cost recovery under its existing transmission cost recovery rider and are anticipated to be included in future transmission cost recovery filings. (See Note 6. Regulatory Matters.) In 2015, the FERC approved our request to recover on construction work in progress related to the GNTL from Minnesota Power&amp;#8217;s wholesale customers. In an April&amp;#160;2016 order, the MPUC approved the route permit for the GNTL which largely follows Minnesota Power&amp;#8217;s preferred route, including the international border crossing, and in November&amp;#160;2016, the U.S. Department of Energy issued a presidential permit to cross the U.S.-Canadian border, which was the final major regulatory approval needed before construction in the U.S. could begin. Site clearing and pre-construction activities commenced in the first quarter of 2017 with construction expected to be completed in 2020. Total project cost in the U.S., including substation work, is estimated to be between &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;$560 million&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; and &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;$710&amp;#160;million&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;, of which Minnesota Power&amp;#8217;s portion is expected to be between &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;$300 million&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; and &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;$350 million&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;; the difference will be recovered from a subsidiary of Manitoba Hydro as contributions in aid of construction. Total project costs of &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;$56.8 million&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; have been incurred through March&amp;#160;31,&amp;#160;2017, of which &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;$29.6 million&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; has been recovered from a subsidiary of Manitoba Hydro.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;Manitoba Hydro must obtain regulatory and governmental approvals related to a new transmission line in Canada. In 2015, Manitoba Hydro submitted the final preferred route and EIS for the transmission line in Canada to the Manitoba Conservation and Water Stewardship for regulatory approval. Construction of Manitoba Hydro&amp;#8217;s hydroelectric generation facility commenced in 2014.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;"&gt;Environmental Matters.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;Our businesses are subject to regulation of environmental matters by various federal, state and local authorities. A number of regulatory changes to the Clean Air Act, the Clean Water Act and various waste management requirements have recently been promulgated by both the EPA and state authorities. Minnesota Power&amp;#8217;s facilities are subject to additional regulation under many of these regulations. In response to these regulations, Minnesota Power is reshaping its generation portfolio over time to reduce its reliance on coal, has installed cost-effective emission control technology, and advocates for sound science and policy during rulemaking implementation.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&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. We anticipate that with many state and federal environmental regulations finalized, or to be finalized in the near future, potential expenditures for future environmental matters may be material and may require significant capital investments. Minnesota Power has evaluated various environmental compliance scenarios using possible outcomes of environmental regulations to project power supply trends and impacts on customers.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&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. Accruals are adjusted as assessment and remediation efforts progress, or as additional technical or legal information becomes 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 expensed unless recoverable in rates from customers.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:bold;"&gt;Air.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; The electric utility industry is regulated both at the federal and state level to address air emissions. Minnesota Power&amp;#8217;s generating facilities mainly burn low-sulfur western sub-bituminous coal. All of Minnesota Power&amp;#8217;s coal-fired generating facilities are equipped with pollution control equipment such as scrubbers, baghouses and low NO&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;sub style="vertical-align:bottom;line-height:120%;font-size:7pt"&gt;X&lt;/sub&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; technologies. Under currently applicable environmental regulations, these facilities are substantially compliant with emission requirements.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;"&gt;NOTE 13.&amp;#160;COMMITMENTS, GUARANTEES AND CONTINGENCIES (Continued)&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;"&gt;Environmental Matters (Continued)&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;"&gt;New Source Review (NSR).&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; In 2008, Minnesota Power received a Notice of Violation (NOV) from the EPA asserting violations of the NSR requirements of the Clean Air Act at Boswell and Laskin Unit 2 between the years of 1981 and 2001. Minnesota Power received an additional NOV in 2011 alleging that two projects undertaken at Rapids Energy Center in 2004 and 2005 should have been reviewed under the NSR requirements and that the Rapids Energy Center&amp;#8217;s Title V permit was violated. Minnesota Power reached a settlement with the EPA regarding these NOVs and entered into a Consent Decree which was approved by the U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota in&amp;#160;2014. The Consent Decree provided for, among other requirements, more stringent emissions limits at all affected units, the option of refueling, retrofits or retirements at certain small coal units, and the addition of &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;200&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; MW of wind energy. Provisions of the Consent Decree require that, by no later than December 31, 2018, Boswell Units 1 and 2 must be retired, refueled, repowered, or emissions rerouted through existing emission control technology at Boswell. In October 2016, Minnesota Power announced that Boswell Units 1 and 2 will be retired in 2018 as the latest step in its &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;"&gt;EnergyForward &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;strategic plan. We believe that costs to retire will be eligible for recovery in rates over time, subject to regulatory approval in a rate proceeding.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;"&gt;Cross-State Air Pollution Rule (CSAPR).&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; The CSAPR requires a total of 28 states in the eastern half of the U.S., including Minnesota, to reduce power plant emissions that contribute to ozone or fine particulate pollution in other states.&amp;#160;The CSAPR does not require installation of controls; rather it requires that facilities have sufficient allowances to cover their emissions on an annual basis. These allowances are allocated to facilities from each state&amp;#8217;s annual budget, and can be bought and sold.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;Minnesota Power&amp;#8217;s generation levels and emission rates in 2015 and 2016 were below its allowances. Allowances for 2017 and 2018 were distributed in June 2016. Based on our review of the NO&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;sub style="vertical-align:bottom;line-height:120%;font-size:7pt"&gt;x&lt;/sub&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; and SO&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;sub style="vertical-align:bottom;line-height:120%;font-size:7pt"&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; allowances issued and pending issuance, we currently expect generation levels and emission rates will result in compliance with the CSAPR.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;"&gt;Mercury and Air Toxics Standards (MATS) Rule (formerly known as the Electric Generating Unit Maximum Achievable Control Technology (MACT) Rule).&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; Under Section 112 of the Clean Air Act, the EPA is required to set emission standards for hazardous air pollutants (HAPs) for certain source categories. The EPA published the final MATS rule in the Federal Register in&amp;#160;2012, addressing such emissions from coal-fired utility units greater than 25 MW. There are currently 187 listed HAPs that the EPA is required to evaluate for establishment of MACT standards. In the final MATS rule, the EPA established categories of HAPs, including mercury, trace metals other than mercury, acid gases, dioxin/furans and organics other than dioxin/furans. The EPA also established emission limits for the first three categories of HAPs and work practice standards for the remaining categories. Affected sources were required to be in compliance with the rule by April 2015. States had the authority to grant sources a one-year extension. The MPCA approved Minnesota Power&amp;#8217;s request for an extension of the date of compliance for the Boswell Unit 4 environmental upgrade to April 2016. Construction on the project to implement the Boswell Unit 4 mercury emissions reduction plan was completed in 2015. Boswell Unit 3 is also subject to the MATS rule; however, investments and compliance work completed at Boswell Unit 3, including emission reduction investments completed in 2009, meet the requirements of the MATS rule. The conversion of Laskin Units&amp;#160;1 and 2 to natural gas in 2015 positioned those units for MATS compliance. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;In 2015, the U.S. Supreme Court reversed and remanded an earlier U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit decision on the MATS rule. The U.S. Supreme Court ruled that it was unreasonable for the EPA to deem cost of compliance irrelevant in determining that regulation of emissions of hazardous air pollutants from power plants was &amp;#8220;appropriate and necessary&amp;#8221; under Section 112 of the Clean Air Act. The MATS rule remains in effect until the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit acts on the remand. In 2015, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit rejected a motion by utilities and states to vacate the MATS rule, instead ordering the rule to remain in effect while the EPA completes its review. In April 2016, the EPA announced its determination that the MATS rule is appropriate and necessary, even after considering cost of compliance. The outcome of these proceedings is not expected to have a material impact on Minnesota Power generation due to emission reduction obligations under the Minnesota Mercury Emissions Reduction Act and the Consent Decree. (See &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;"&gt;New Source Review.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;)&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;"&gt;Minnesota Mercury Emissions Reduction Act/Rule. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;In order to comply with the Minnesota Mercury Emissions Reduction Act, which was incorporated into rules promulgated by the MPCA in September 2014, Minnesota Power was required to implement a mercury emissions reduction project for Boswell Unit 4 by December 31, 2018. The Boswell Unit 4 environmental upgrade discussed above (see &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;"&gt;Mercury and Air Toxics Standards (MATS) Rule&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;) fulfills the requirements of the Minnesota Mercury Emissions Reduction Act.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;"&gt;NOTE 13.&amp;#160;COMMITMENTS, GUARANTEES AND CONTINGENCIES (Continued)&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;"&gt;Environmental Matters (Continued)&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;"&gt;EPA National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants for Major Sources: Industrial, Commercial and Institutional Boilers and Process Heaters. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;A final rule issued by the EPA for Industrial Boiler MACT became effective in 2012. Major existing sources had until January 2016, to achieve compliance with the final rule and July 2016, to perform initial compliance demonstrations. Minnesota Power&amp;#8217;s Hibbard Renewable Energy Center and Rapids Energy Center are subject to this rule and are currently in compliance. Compliance consisted largely of adjustments to our operating practices; therefore, the costs for complying with the final rule were not material.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:bold;"&gt;National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS).&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; The EPA is required to review the NAAQS every five years. If the EPA determines that a state&amp;#8217;s air quality is not in compliance with the NAAQS, the state is required to adopt plans describing how it will reduce emissions to attain the NAAQS. These state plans often include more stringent air emission limitations on sources of air pollutants than the NAAQS. Four NAAQS have either recently been revised or are currently proposed for revision, as described below.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;"&gt;Ozone NAAQS. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;The EPA has proposed more stringent control related to emissions that result in ground level ozone. In 2010, the EPA proposed to revise the 2008 eight-hour ozone standard of 75 parts per billion (ppb) and to adopt a secondary standard for the protection of sensitive vegetation from ozone-related damage. In 2015, the EPA published the final rule in the Federal Register revising the eight-hour ozone standard to 70 ppb with a secondary standard also set at 70 ppb. All areas of Minnesota currently meet the new standard based on the most recent available ambient monitoring data; however, some areas in the metropolitan Twin Cities and southwest portion of the state are close to exceeding the standard. As a result, voluntary efforts to reduce ozone continue in the state. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;No&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; additional costs for compliance are anticipated at this time.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;"&gt;Particulate Matter NAAQS. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;The EPA finalized the Particulate Matter NAAQS in&amp;#160;2006. Since then, the EPA has established more stringent 24-hour and annual average fine particulate matter (PM&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;sub style="vertical-align:bottom;line-height:120%;font-size:7pt"&gt;2.5&lt;/sub&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;) standards; the 24-hour coarse particulate matter standard has remained unchanged. In 2012, the EPA issued a final rule implementing a more stringent annual PM&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;sub style="vertical-align:bottom;line-height:120%;font-size:7pt"&gt;2.5&lt;/sub&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; standard, while retaining the current 24-hour PM&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;sub style="vertical-align:bottom;line-height:120%;font-size:7pt"&gt;2.5&lt;/sub&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; standard. To implement the new annual PM&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;sub style="vertical-align:bottom;line-height:120%;font-size:7pt"&gt;2.5&lt;/sub&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; standard, the EPA is revising aspects of relevant monitoring, designation and permitting requirements. New projects and permits must comply with the new standard, which is generally demonstrated by modeling at the facility level.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;Under the final rule, states will be responsible for additional PM&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;sub style="vertical-align:bottom;line-height:120%;font-size:7pt"&gt;2.5&lt;/sub&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; monitoring, which will likely be accomplished by relocating or repurposing existing monitors. The EPA asked states to submit attainment designations by 2013, based on already available monitoring data, and issued designations of the 2012 revised primary annual fine particulate attainment status in&amp;#160;2014. The EPA designated the entire state of Minnesota as unclassifiable/attainment; however, Minnesota sources may ultimately be required to reduce their emissions to assist with attainment in neighboring states. In September 2016, environmental groups filed a lawsuit against the EPA in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California alleging the EPA had failed to fully implement the PM&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;sub style="vertical-align:bottom;line-height:120%;font-size:7pt"&gt;2.5 &lt;/sub&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;standards in 24 states, including Minnesota, by not enforcing states&amp;#8217; submittals of required infrastructure SIPs for the 2012 PM&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;sub style="vertical-align:bottom;line-height:120%;font-size:7pt"&gt;2.5 &lt;/sub&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;NAAQS. The outcome of this litigation is uncertain, and as such, any costs for complying with the final Particulate Matter NAAQS cannot be estimated at this time. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;"&gt;SO&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;"&gt;&lt;sub style="vertical-align:bottom;line-height:120%;font-size:7pt"&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;"&gt; and NO&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;"&gt;&lt;sub style="vertical-align:bottom;line-height:120%;font-size:7pt"&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;"&gt; NAAQS. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;During 2010, the EPA finalized one-hour NAAQS for SO&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;sub style="vertical-align:bottom;line-height:120%;font-size:7pt"&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; and NO&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;sub style="vertical-align:bottom;line-height:120%;font-size:7pt"&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;. Ambient monitoring data indicates that Minnesota is likely in compliance with these standards; however, the one-hour SO&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;sub style="vertical-align:bottom;line-height:120%;font-size:7pt"&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; NAAQS also requires the EPA to evaluate additional modeling and monitoring considerations to determine attainment. In 2012, the MPCA notified Minnesota Power that modeling had been suspended as a result of the EPA&amp;#8217;s announcement that the SIP submittals would not require modeling demonstrations for states, such as Minnesota, where ambient monitors indicate compliance with the standard. The EPA notified states that their infrastructure SIPs for maintaining attainment of the standard were required to be submitted to the EPA for approval by 2013; however, the State of Minnesota delayed completing the documents pending EPA guidance to states for preparing the SIP submittal. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;In 2013, the EPA provided guidance to states regarding implementation of the one-hour NO&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;sub style="vertical-align:bottom;line-height:120%;font-size:7pt"&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; NAAQS and in&amp;#160;2014, as clarified in 2015, the MPCA submitted a SIP revision to the EPA addressing the infrastructure requirements of Sections 110(a)(1) and 110(a)(2) of the Clean Air Act in regards to the one-hour NO&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;sub style="vertical-align:bottom;line-height:120%;font-size:7pt"&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; and SO&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;sub style="vertical-align:bottom;line-height:120%;font-size:7pt"&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; NAAQS, among other standards. The SIP stated that since the EPA determined in 2012 that no area in the country is in violation of the one-hour NO&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;sub style="vertical-align:bottom;line-height:120%;font-size:7pt"&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; NAAQS, there are no nonattainment areas in the country for this pollutant, and therefore Minnesota&amp;#8217;s NO&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;sub style="vertical-align:bottom;line-height:120%;font-size:7pt"&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; emissions cannot be significantly contributing to nonattainment in any other state. In 2015, the EPA published in the Federal Register an approval and partial disapproval of the 2014 SIP revision. According to the MPCA, the partial disapproval is regarding state delegation of a program unrelated to the one-hour NAAQS for SO&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;sub style="vertical-align:bottom;line-height:120%;font-size:7pt"&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; and NO&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;sub style="vertical-align:bottom;line-height:120%;font-size:7pt"&gt;2, &lt;/sub&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;and is not expected to require further action.&amp;#160;As such, additional compliance costs for the one-hour NO&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;sub style="vertical-align:bottom;line-height:120%;font-size:7pt"&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; NAAQS are &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;not&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; expected at this time.&amp;#160; &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;"&gt;NOTE 13.&amp;#160;COMMITMENTS, GUARANTEES AND CONTINGENCIES (Continued)&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;"&gt;Environmental Matters (Continued)&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;In 2015, the EPA finalized the SO&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;sub style="vertical-align:bottom;line-height:120%;font-size:7pt"&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; data requirements rule (DRR) for the 2010 one-hour NAAQS to assist the states in implementing the standard. The rule sets emissions thresholds and exemptions for facilities that trigger modeling requirements. In January 2016, the MPCA informed the EPA of the Minnesota sources subject to the rule, confirming that Boswell and Taconite Harbor are the only Minnesota Power generating facilities subject to the DRR. The MPCA was required to notify the EPA as to how each source will evaluate air quality by July 2016. Compliance options include ambient monitoring, modeling existing enforceable emission limits, or modeling actual emissions. The MPCA initially informed Minnesota Power that compliant SO&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;sub style="vertical-align:bottom;line-height:120%;font-size:7pt"&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; modeling recently completed at these facilities would satisfy the DRR obligations and no further modeling would be required; however, the DRR also requires facilities have federally-enforceable permit limits at which the one-hour SO&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;sub style="vertical-align:bottom;line-height:120%;font-size:7pt"&gt;2 &lt;/sub&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;NAAQS compliance was modeled by January 13, 2017. Taconite Harbor was issued an amended air permit in September 2016, containing the new modeling limits at that facility. The MPCA did not meet the January 13, 2017, deadline to amend the Boswell permit. The MPCA is in discussions with the EPA on alternate compliance pathways to use existing completed modeling at current limits. Compliance costs for the one-hour SO&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;sub style="vertical-align:bottom;line-height:120%;font-size:7pt"&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; NAAQS are not expected to be material. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;"&gt;Class I Air Quality Petitions and Requests.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; In 2014,&amp;#160;the Fond du Lac Band of Lake Superior Chippewa (Fond du Lac Band) announced its intent to petition the EPA to redesignate its reservation air shed from Class II to Class I air quality pursuant to Section 164(c) of the Clean Air Act.&amp;#160;The Fond du Lac Band does not currently possess authority to directly regulate air quality. Class I air shed status, if granted, would allow the Fond du Lac Band to impose more stringent Clean Air Act protections within the boundaries of the Fond du Lac reservation, including the reservation air shed, near Cloquet, Minnesota. Five other reservations across the U.S. have received Class I status. A public hearing was held by the Fond du Lac Band and the public comment period on the petition expired in 2014. After the Fond du Lac Band prepares responses to the comments, it is anticipated to make a formal submittal request to the EPA.&amp;#160;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;In 2013, the Bad River Band of Lake Superior Chippewa (Bad River Band) announced its intent to petition the EPA to redesignate its reservation air shed from Class II to Class&amp;#160;I air quality pursuant to Section 164(c) of the Clean Air Act. The Class I analysis report was issued by the Bad River Band and was followed by public hearings and public comment period ending in 2015. After the Bad River Band prepares responses to the comments, it is also anticipated to make a formal submittal request to the EPA.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;There is no deadline for the approval, denial, or modification of these requests by the EPA. We are unable to determine the impact of potential Class I status on the Company&amp;#8217;s operations at this time.&amp;#160;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:bold;"&gt;Climate Change.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; The scientific community generally accepts that emissions of GHG are linked to global climate change which creates physical and financial risks. Physical risks could include, but are not limited to: increased or decreased precipitation and water levels in lakes and rivers; increased temperatures; and changes in the intensity and frequency of extreme weather events. These all have the potential to affect the Company&amp;#8217;s business and operations.

Certain portions of the CAP directly address electric utility GHG emissions. On March 28, 2017, President Trump signed an Executive Order titled Promoting Energy Independence and Economic Growth that rescinds the Climate Action Plan.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;"&gt;EPA Regulation of GHG Emissions.&amp;#160;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;In 2010, the EPA issued the Prevention of Significant Deterioration (PSD) and Title&amp;#160;V Greenhouse Gas Tailoring Rule (Tailoring Rule). The Tailoring Rule establishes permitting thresholds required to address GHG emissions for new facilities, existing facilities that undergo major modifications and other facilities characterized as major sources under the Clean Air Act&amp;#8217;s Title V program. For our existing facilities, the rule does not require amending our existing Title&amp;#160;V operating permits to include GHG requirements. However, GHG requirements may be added to our existing Title&amp;#160;V operating permits by the MPCA as these permits are renewed or amended.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;"&gt;NOTE 13.&amp;#160;COMMITMENTS, GUARANTEES AND CONTINGENCIES (Continued)&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;"&gt;Environmental Matters (Continued)&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;In late 2010, the EPA issued guidance to permitting authorities and affected sources to facilitate incorporation of the Tailoring Rule permitting requirements into the Title V and PSD permitting programs. The guidance stated that the project-specific, top&amp;#8209;down Best Available Control Technology (BACT) determination process used for other pollutants will also be used to determine BACT for GHG emissions. Through sector-specific white papers, the EPA also provided examples and technical summaries of GHG emission control technologies and techniques the EPA considers available or likely to be available to sources. It is possible that these control technologies could be determined to be BACT on a project-by-project basis.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;In 2014, the U.S. Supreme Court invalidated the aspect of the Tailoring Rule that established higher permitting thresholds for GHG than for other pollutants subject to PSD. However, the court also upheld the EPA&amp;#8217;s power to require BACT for GHG from sources already subject to regulation under PSD. Minnesota Power&amp;#8217;s coal-fired generating facilities are already subject to regulation under PSD, so we anticipate that ultimately PSD for GHG will apply to our facilities, but the timing of the promulgation of a replacement for the Tailoring Rule is uncertain. The PSD applies to existing facilities only when they undertake a major modification that increases emissions. At this time, we are unable to predict the compliance costs that we might incur.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;In October 2016, the EPA published a proposed rule in the Federal Register to revise its PSD and Title V regulatory provisions concerning GHG emissions. In this proposed rule, the EPA proposes to amend its regulations to clarify that a source&amp;#8217;s obligation to obtain a PSD or Title V permit is triggered only by non-GHG pollutants. If the PSD or Title V permitting requirements are triggered by non-GHG, NSR pollutants, then these programs will also apply to the source&amp;#8217;s GHG emissions. The proposed rule, as currently written, is not expected to have a material impact on the Title V permitting for current operations. It is uncertain as to how the Title V permitting requirements will be affected by the March 28, 2017, Executive Order titled Promoting Energy Independence and Economic Growth.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;In 2014, the EPA announced a proposed rule under Section 111(d) of the Clean Air Act for existing power plants entitled &amp;#8220;Carbon Pollution Emission Guidelines for Existing Stationary Sources: Electric Generating Units&amp;#8221;, also referred to as the Clean Power Plan (CPP). The EPA issued the final CPP in 2015, together with a proposed federal implementation plan and a model rule for emissions trading. Petitions for review of the rule were filed with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit. In February&amp;#160;2016, the U.S. Supreme Court issued an order staying the effectiveness of the rule until after the appellate court process is complete. In September 2016, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia heard oral arguments and is currently deliberating. The EPA is precluded from enforcing the CPP while the U.S. Supreme Court stay is in force; however, the MPCA has been holding a series of meetings on the CPP for educational and planning purposes in the interim. Minnesota Power has been actively involved in these MPCA meetings, and is closely monitoring the appeals process.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;If upheld, the CPP would establish uniform CO&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;sub style="vertical-align:bottom;line-height:120%;font-size:7pt"&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; emission performance rates for existing fossil fuel-fired and natural gas-fired combined cycle generating units, setting state-specific goals for CO&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;sub style="vertical-align:bottom;line-height:120%;font-size:7pt"&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; emissions from the power sector. State goals were determined based on CPP source-specific performance emission rates and each state&amp;#8217;s mix of power plants. The EPA maintains such goals are achievable if a state undertakes a combination of measures across its power sector that constitutes the EPA&amp;#8217;s guideline for a Best System of Emission Reductions (BSER). BSER is comprised of three building blocks: 1) improved fossil fuel power plant efficiency, 2) increased reliance on low-emitting power sources by generating more electricity from existing natural gas combined cycle units, and 3) building more zero- and low-emitting power sources, including renewable energy. States may also choose to include avoided CO&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;sub style="vertical-align:bottom;line-height:120%;font-size:7pt"&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; emissions from customer energy efficiency measures for credit towards meeting state goals. The regulatory review initiated by the March 28, 2017, Executive Order titled Promoting Energy Independence and Economic Growth is directed to include Section 111(b) and 111(d) CPP provisions. In addition, the EPA has filed a motion with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit to hold CPP-related litigation in abeyance while the EPA is reviewing the rule. Minnesota Power is monitoring developments with respect to the CPP rule and related matters.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;State goals under the CPP are expressed as both mass-based and rate-based, and include interim goals to be met over the years 2022 through 2029, as well as a final goal to be met in 2030 and thereafter. Under the original schedule for the CPP, each state would have been required to develop a SIP by September 2016, or by September 6, 2018, if granted an extension. Due to the U.S. Supreme Court order staying the effectiveness of the CPP, those SIP submittal dates are not currently in effect. If the CPP is upheld at the completion of the appellate court process, all of the CPP regulatory deadlines are expected to be reset based on the length of time that the appeals process takes.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;"&gt;NOTE 13.&amp;#160;COMMITMENTS, GUARANTEES AND CONTINGENCIES (Continued)&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;"&gt;Environmental Matters (Continued)&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;In developing its plan, a state may choose to meet either the mass-based or the rate-based goals. Minnesota Power is currently evaluating the CPP as it relates to the State of Minnesota as well as its potential impact on the Company and is actively discussing potential compliance scenarios with regulatory agencies and in public stakeholder meetings. Minnesota has already initiated several measures consistent with those called for under the CAP and CPP. Minnesota Power is implementing its &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;"&gt;EnergyForward&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; strategic plan that provides for significant emission reductions and diversifying its electricity generation mix to include more renewable and natural gas energy. (See Note 6. Regulatory Matters.) &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;We are unable to predict the GHG emission compliance costs we might incur; however, the costs could be material. Minnesota Power would seek recovery of any additional costs through a rate proceeding.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:bold;"&gt;Water.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; The Clean Water Act requires NPDES permits be obtained from the EPA (or, when delegated, from individual state pollution control agencies) for any wastewater discharged into navigable waters. We have obtained all necessary NPDES permits, including NPDES storm water permits for applicable facilities, to conduct our operations.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;"&gt;Clean Water Act - Aquatic Organisms.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; In 2011, the EPA announced proposed regulations under Section&amp;#160;316(b) of the Clean Water Act that set standards applicable to cooling water intake structures for the protection of aquatic organisms. The proposed regulations would require existing large power plants and manufacturing facilities that withdraw greater than 25&amp;#160;percent of water from adjacent water bodies for cooling purposes, and have a design intake flow of greater than 2 million gallons per day, to limit the number of aquatic organisms that are impacted by the facility&amp;#8217;s intake structure or cooling system. The Section 316(b) rule was effective in 2014. The Section 316(b) standards will be implemented through NPDES permits issued to the covered facilities with compliance timing dependent on individual NPDES renewal schedules. No NPDES permits for Minnesota Power generating facilities have been re-issued containing Section 316(b) requirements since the final rule was published, so at this time we are unable to determine the final cost of compliance. Should the MPCA require significant modifications to Minnesota Power&amp;#8217;s intake structures, a preliminary assessment indicates costs of compliance up to &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;$15 million&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; over the next 5 years. Minnesota Power would seek recovery of any additional costs through a general rate case.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;"&gt;Steam Electric Power Generating Effluent Guidelines. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;In 2015, the EPA issued revised federal effluent limit guidelines (ELG) for steam electric power generating stations under the Clean Water Act.&amp;#160;It sets effluent limits and prescribes BACT for several wastewater streams, including flue gas desulphurization (FGD) water and coal combustion landfill leachate. The ELG rule also prohibits the discharge of bottom and fly ash contact waters. Compliance with the final rule is required between November&amp;#160;1,&amp;#160;2018, and December&amp;#160;31,&amp;#160;2023. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;We are reviewing the final rule and evaluating its potential impact on Minnesota Power&amp;#8217;s operations, primarily at Boswell. Boswell currently discharges bottom ash contact water through its NPDES permit, and also has a closed-loop FGD system that does not currently discharge, but may do so in the future. Under the final ELG rule, bottom ash discharge would not be allowed and bottom ash contact water would either need to be re-used in a closed-loop process, routed to a FGD scrubber, or the bottom ash handling system would need to be converted to a dry process. If the FGD wastewater is discharged in the future, it would require additional wastewater treatment. Efforts have been underway at Boswell for several years to reduce the amount of water discharged and evaluate potential re-use options in its plant processes. Additional efforts are underway to determine if land application of certain wastewater streams under a state disposal system may be feasible.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;On April 12, 2017, the EPA announced that it would reconsider the final ELG rule and administratively stay the compliance dates set forth in the rule.&amp;#160;The EPA has received seven petitions for review of the ELG rule, which were consolidated in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit in late 2015. The EPA has indicated they will also file a motion requesting that court to hold litigation challenging the ELG rule in abeyance while the EPA reconsiders the rule. All pending deadlines under the ELG rule will be stayed while the EPA re-examines it.&amp;#160;Under the ELG rule schedule, required compliance activity deadlines could have been in place as soon as November 1, 2018. These deadlines could have included prescriptive wastewater treatment technology installation, as well as a ban on bottom ash contact water discharges.&amp;#160;If the EPA&amp;#8217;s reconsideration results in the rule being revised or rescinded, the authority to regulate bottom ash transport water and FGD wastewater would fall under existing Effluent Guidelines Limits and state resource agency purview.&amp;#160; &amp;#160;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;"&gt;NOTE 13.&amp;#160;COMMITMENTS, GUARANTEES AND CONTINGENCIES (Continued)&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;"&gt;Environmental Matters (Continued)&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;At this time, we cannot estimate what compliance costs we might incur related to these or other potential future water discharge regulations; however, the costs could be material, including costs associated with retrofits for bottom ash handling, pond dewatering, pond closure, and wastewater treatment and/or reuse. Minnesota Power would seek recovery of any additional costs through a rate proceeding.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;"&gt;Solid and Hazardous Waste.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; The Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976 regulates the management and disposal of solid and hazardous wastes. We are required to notify the EPA of hazardous waste activity and, consequently, routinely submit the necessary reports to the EPA.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;"&gt;Coal Ash Management Facilities.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; Minnesota Power disposes or stores coal ash at four of its electric generating facilities by the following methods; storing ash in lined onsite impoundments (ash ponds), disposing of dry ash in a lined dry ash landfill which has been idled and has a temporary landfill cover in place, applying ash to land as an approved beneficial use or trucking ash to state permitted landfills.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;The EPA issued the final CCR rule in 2014 under Subtitle D (non-hazardous) of RCRA and it was published in the Federal Register in 2015. The rule includes additional requirements for new landfill and impoundment construction as well as closure activities related to certain existing impoundments. Costs of compliance for Boswell and Laskin are expected to occur primarily over the next 10 years and be between approximately &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;$65 million&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; and &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;$100 million&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;. Recently, the EPA has indicated to Minnesota Power that the Taconite Harbor landfill is a CCR unit, based on EPA&amp;#8217;s interpretation of the CCR rule language. Minnesota Power has agreed to post the required CCR information for the Taconite Harbor landfill on Minnesota Power&amp;#8217;s website while the CCR issue is resolved. Minnesota Power continues to work on minimizing costs through evaluation of beneficial re-use and recycling of CCR and CCR-related waters. Compliance costs, if any for CCR at Taconite Harbor are not expected to be material. Minnesota Power would seek recovery of any additional costs through a general rate case. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;"&gt;Other Environmental Matters.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; In November 2016, U.S. Water Services received notice from the EPA regarding potential violations under the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodenticide Act for the sale of certain chemicals without registration or that were misbranded. The potential violations primarily related to sales in 2013 by a U.S. Water Services subsidiary which occurred prior to U.S. Water Services&amp;#8217; acquisition of that subsidiary. In the first quarter of 2017, U.S. Water Services reached a settlement with the EPA and entered into a consent agreement which provides for the payment of approximately &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;$0.2 million&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; to resolve this matter.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;"&gt;Other Matters.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;"&gt;ALLETE Clean Energy. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;ALLETE Clean Energy&amp;#8217;s wind energy facilities have PSAs in place for their entire output and expire in various years between 2018 and 2032.

We have determined that either we have no variable interest in the PPAs or, where we do have variable interests, we are not the primary beneficiary; therefore, consolidation is not required. These conclusions are based on the fact that we do not have both control over activities that are most significant to the entity and an obligation to absorb losses or receive benefits from the entity&amp;#8217;s performance.

million&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; of the Company's senior unsecured notes (the&amp;#160;Notes) to certain institutional buyers in the private placement market. The Notes will be sold in reliance on an exemption from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, to institutional accredited investors. The Notes will be issued on or about June 1, 2017, carry an interest rate of &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;3.11 percent&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; and mature on June 1, 2027.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;Interest on the Notes is payable semi-annually on June 1 and December 1 of each year, commencing on December 1, 2017. The Company has the option to prepay all or a portion of the Notes at its discretion, subject to a make-whole provision. The Notes are subject to additional terms and conditions which are customary for these types of transactions. Proceeds from the sale of the Notes will be used to redeem debt, fund corporate growth opportunities and/or for general corporate purposes.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;"&gt;Financial Covenants.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&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. Our compliance with financial covenants is not dependent on debt ratings. The most restrictive financial covenant requires ALLETE&amp;#160;to maintain a ratio of indebtedness to total capitalization (as the amounts are calculated in accordance with the respective long-term debt arrangements) of less than or equal to &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;0.65 to 1.00&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;, measured quarterly. As of &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;color:#000000;text-decoration:none;"&gt;March&amp;#160;31,&amp;#160;2017&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;, our ratio was approximately &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;0.43 to 1.00&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;. 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 &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;color:#000000;text-decoration:none;"&gt;March&amp;#160;31,&amp;#160;2017&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;, ALLETE was in compliance with its financial covenants.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</us-gaap:DebtDisclosureTextBlock>

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. Accruals are adjusted as assessment and remediation efforts progress, or as additional technical or legal information becomes 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.

style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;In September 2016, the FERC issued an order reducing ATC&amp;#8217;s authorized return on equity to &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;10.32 percent&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;, or &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font

transmission organization. Prior to this order, ATC had been allowed a return on equity of &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;12.2 percent&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; which had been impacted by reductions for estimated refunds related to complaints filed with the FERC by several customers located within the MISO service area. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;"&gt;NOTE 7.&amp;#160;INVESTMENT IN ATC (Continued)&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;In June 2016, a federal administrative law judge ruled on an additional complaint proposing a further reduction in the base return on equity to &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;9.70 percent&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;, or &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;10.20 percent&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; including an incentive adder for participation in a regional transmission organization, subject to approval or adjustment by the FERC. A final decision from the FERC on the administrative law judge&amp;#8217;s recommendation is expected in 2017. (See Note&amp;#160;6.&amp;#160;Regulatory Matters.)

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 discussed in Note 9. Fair Value to the Consolidated Financial Statements in our &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;color:#000000;text-decoration:none;"&gt;2016&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; Form 10-K.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&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 &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;color:#000000;text-decoration:none;"&gt;March&amp;#160;31,&amp;#160;2017&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;, and &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;color:#000000;text-decoration:none;"&gt;December&amp;#160;31,&amp;#160;2016&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;. 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 these assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy levels. The estimated fair value of Cash and Cash Equivalents listed on the Consolidated Balance Sheet approximates the carrying amount and therefore is excluded from the recurring fair value measures in the following tables.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;"&gt;NOTE 5.

Accordingly, we utilize valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.

Net realizable value is defined as estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation. This accounting guidance was adopted in the first quarter of 2017 and did not have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;"&gt;Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting.&amp;#160;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;In March 2016, the FASB issued guidance to simplify the accounting for share-based payment transactions by requiring all excess tax benefits and deficiencies to be recognized in income tax expense or benefit in earnings, thus eliminating the requirement to classify the excess tax benefit and deficiencies as additional paid-in capital. Under the new guidance, an entity makes an accounting policy election to either estimate the expected forfeiture awards or account for forfeitures as they occur. This accounting guidance was adopted in the first quarter of 2017. The adoption of this guidance is expected to result in a less than &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;$1 million&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; impact to income tax expense (benefit) annually.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;"&gt;NOTE 1.

The clarifying guidance will also impact other areas including the accounting for goodwill and consolidation. This accounting guidance was adopted in the first quarter of 2017 and did not have an impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:bold;"&gt;Recently Issued Pronouncements&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;"&gt;Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;In January 2017, the FASB issued updated guidance which simplifies the measurement of goodwill impairment by removing step two of the goodwill impairment test that requires the determination of the fair value of individual assets and liabilities of a reporting unit. The updated guidance requires goodwill impairment to be measured as the amount by which a reporting unit&amp;#8217;s carrying value exceeds its fair value; however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. This guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2020, with early adoption permitted on a prospective basis. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;"&gt;Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;In March 2017, the FASB issued guidance to improve the presentation of net periodic pension and postretirement benefit costs. Under the new guidance, an entity shall present the service cost component of the net periodic benefit cost in the same income statement line as other employee compensation costs arising from services rendered during the period. The guidance also allows only the service cost component of the periodic expense to be eligible for capitalization. The other components of net periodic expense will be presented separately from the line item that includes the service cost and will be excluded from the operating income subtotal. This accounting guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2018. The adoption of this guidance by the Company is expected to result in higher operating expense and lower operating income. This guidance is not expected to have an impact on net income. We will continue to evaluate the impact of this standard on our Consolidated Financial Statements. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;"&gt;Revenue from Contracts with Customers.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; In 2014, the FASB issued amended revenue recognition guidance to clarify the principles for recognizing revenue from contracts with customers. The guidance requires an entity to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance also requires expanded disclosures relating to the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. Additionally, qualitative and quantitative disclosures are required regarding customer contracts, significant judgments and changes in judgments, and assets recognized from the costs to obtain or fulfill a contract. The Company is considering the impact of the new guidance on its ability to recognize revenue from certain contracts where collectibility is in question and bundled sales contracts and contracts with pricing provisions that may require it to recognize revenue at prices other than the contract price (e.g., straight line or estimated future market prices). The guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2018 with early adoption permitted. The Company will adopt this guidance for our fiscal year beginning January 1, 2018.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;"&gt;Leases.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; In February 2016, the FASB issued an accounting standard update which revises the existing guidance for leases. Under the revised guidance, lessees will be required to recognize a &amp;#8220;right-of-use&amp;#8221; asset and a lease liability for all leases with a term greater than 12 months. The new standard also requires additional quantitative and qualitative disclosures by lessees and lessors to enable users of the financial statements to assess the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. The accounting for leases by lessors and the recognition, measurement and presentation of expenses and cash flows from leases are not expected to significantly change as a result of the updated guidance. The revised guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2019 with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of the amended lease guidance on our Consolidated Financial Statements.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;"&gt;Financial Instruments&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;. In January 2016, the FASB issued an accounting standard update which requires entities to measure their investments at fair value and recognize any changes in fair value in net income unless the investments qualify for the new practicability exception. The practicability exception will be available for equity investments that do not have readily determinable fair values. The updated guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2018. We are currently evaluating the impact that the standard will have on our Consolidated Financial Statements.  &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;"&gt;NOTE 1.

This accounting guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2018. The guidance will result in changes to the Company&amp;#8217;s Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows relating to debt prepayments, contingent consideration payments, proceeds from insurance settlements, proceeds from corporate-owned life insurance policies and distributions received from equity method investees.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;"&gt;Statement of Cash Flows: Restricted Cash. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;In November 2016, the FASB issued an accounting standard update related to the presentation of restricted cash in the Company&amp;#8217;s Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. The update requires that the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows explain the change during the period in cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash. Restricted cash should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. This accounting guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2018. The Company plans to adopt this guidance for our fiscal year beginning January 1, 2018, and the guidance will result in changes to the Company&amp;#8217;s Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows such that restricted cash amounts will be included in the beginning-of-period and end-of-period cash and cash equivalents totals. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</us-gaap:NewAccountingPronouncementsPolicyPolicyTextBlock>

the Measurement of Inventory. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;In 2015, the FASB issued an accounting standard which requires entities that measure inventory using the first-in, first-out or average cost methods to measure inventory at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Net realizable value is defined as estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation. This accounting guidance was adopted in the first quarter of 2017 and did not have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;"&gt;Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting.&amp;#160;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;In March 2016, the FASB issued guidance to simplify the accounting for share-based payment transactions by requiring all excess tax benefits and deficiencies to be recognized in income tax expense or benefit in earnings, thus eliminating the requirement to classify the excess tax benefit and deficiencies as additional paid-in capital. Under the new guidance, an entity makes an accounting policy election to either estimate the expected forfeiture awards or account for forfeitures as they occur. This accounting guidance was adopted in the first quarter of 2017. The adoption of this guidance is expected to result in a less than &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;$1 million&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; impact to income tax expense (benefit) annually.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;"&gt;NOTE 1.

The clarifying guidance will also impact other areas including the accounting for goodwill and consolidation. This accounting guidance was adopted in the first quarter of 2017 and did not have an impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:bold;"&gt;Recently Issued Pronouncements&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;"&gt;Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;In January 2017, the FASB issued updated guidance which simplifies the measurement of goodwill impairment by removing step two of the goodwill impairment test that requires the determination of the fair value of individual assets and liabilities of a reporting unit. The updated guidance requires goodwill impairment to be measured as the amount by which a reporting unit&amp;#8217;s carrying value exceeds its fair value; however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. This guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2020, with early adoption permitted on a prospective basis. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;"&gt;Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;In March 2017, the FASB issued guidance to improve the presentation of net periodic pension and postretirement benefit costs. Under the new guidance, an entity shall present the service cost component of the net periodic benefit cost in the same income statement line as other employee compensation costs arising from services rendered during the period. The guidance also allows only the service cost component of the periodic expense to be eligible for capitalization. The other components of net periodic expense will be presented separately from the line item that includes the service cost and will be excluded from the operating income subtotal. This accounting guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2018. The adoption of this guidance by the Company is expected to result in higher operating expense and lower operating income. This guidance is not expected to have an impact on net income. We will continue to evaluate the impact of this standard on our Consolidated Financial Statements. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;"&gt;Revenue from Contracts with Customers.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; In 2014, the FASB issued amended revenue recognition guidance to clarify the principles for recognizing revenue from contracts with customers. The guidance requires an entity to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance also requires expanded disclosures relating to the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. Additionally, qualitative and quantitative disclosures are required regarding customer contracts, significant judgments and changes in judgments, and assets recognized from the costs to obtain or fulfill a contract. The Company is considering the impact of the new guidance on its ability to recognize revenue from certain contracts where collectibility is in question and bundled sales contracts and contracts with pricing provisions that may require it to recognize revenue at prices other than the contract price (e.g., straight line or estimated future market prices). The guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2018 with early adoption permitted. The Company will adopt this guidance for our fiscal year beginning January 1, 2018.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;"&gt;Leases.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; In February 2016, the FASB issued an accounting standard update which revises the existing guidance for leases. Under the revised guidance, lessees will be required to recognize a &amp;#8220;right-of-use&amp;#8221; asset and a lease liability for all leases with a term greater than 12 months. The new standard also requires additional quantitative and qualitative disclosures by lessees and lessors to enable users of the financial statements to assess the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. The accounting for leases by lessors and the recognition, measurement and presentation of expenses and cash flows from leases are not expected to significantly change as a result of the updated guidance. The revised guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2019 with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of the amended lease guidance on our Consolidated Financial Statements.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;"&gt;Financial Instruments&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;. In January 2016, the FASB issued an accounting standard update which requires entities to measure their investments at fair value and recognize any changes in fair value in net income unless the investments qualify for the new practicability exception. The practicability exception will be available for equity investments that do not have readily determinable fair values. The updated guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2018. We are currently evaluating the impact that the standard will have on our Consolidated Financial Statements.  &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;"&gt;NOTE 1.

This accounting guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2018. The guidance will result in changes to the Company&amp;#8217;s Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows relating to debt prepayments, contingent consideration payments, proceeds from insurance settlements, proceeds from corporate-owned life insurance policies and distributions received from equity method investees.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;"&gt;Statement of Cash Flows: Restricted Cash. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;In November 2016, the FASB issued an accounting standard update related to the presentation of restricted cash in the Company&amp;#8217;s Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. The update requires that the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows explain the change during the period in cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash. Restricted cash should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. This accounting guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2018. The Company plans to adopt this guidance for our fiscal year beginning January 1, 2018, and the guidance will result in changes to the Company&amp;#8217;s Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows such that restricted cash amounts will be included in the beginning-of-period and end-of-period cash and cash equivalents totals. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;"&gt;Revision of Prior Balance Sheet.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; During the first quarter of 2017, the Company identified an error related to the deferred income tax treatment associated with its Wholesale and Retail Contra AFUDC Regulatory Liability. The Company evaluated the materiality of the error and concluded it was not material to any previously issued historical financial statements. The Company has revised its historical Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2016, by decreasing Regulatory Assets and Deferred Income Taxes by &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;$29.5 million&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;. The correction had no impact on our Consolidated Statement of Income.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</us-gaap:OrganizationConsolidationBasisOfPresentationBusinessDescriptionAndAccountingPoliciesTextBlock>

The rate filing seeks a return on equity of &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;10.25&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&amp;#160;percent and a &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;53.8 percent&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; equity ratio. On an annualized basis, the requested final rate increase would have generated approximately &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;$55&amp;#160;million&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; in additional revenue. In December&amp;#160;2016, Minnesota Power filed a request to modify its original interim rate proposal reducing its requested interim rate increase to &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;$34.7&amp;#160;million&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; from the original request of approximately &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;$49 million&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; due to a change in its electric sales forecast. In December&amp;#160;2016 orders, the MPUC accepted the November 2016 filing as complete and authorized an annual interim rate increase of &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;$34.7&amp;#160;million&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; beginning January&amp;#160;1,&amp;#160;2017. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;On February&amp;#160;23,&amp;#160;2017, Minnesota Power filed an additional request to further reduce its requested interim rate increase. In an order dated April 13, 2017, the MPUC approved Minnesota Power&amp;#8217;s updated retail rate request resulting in a reduction in the annual interim rate increase to &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;$32.2&amp;#160;million&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; beginning May&amp;#160;1,&amp;#160;2017. On February 28, 2017, Minnesota Power filed an update to its rate increase request, reducing its requested final retail rate increase from approximately &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;$55 million&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; to approximately &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;$39&amp;#160;million&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; on an annualized basis. As of March&amp;#160;31,&amp;#160;2017, Minnesota Power has not received any indication that a refund of interim rates will be necessary. Management will continue to evaluate the need for a reserve for interim rates as the 2016 general rate case proceeds.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;As part of the 2016 Minnesota general rate request and through Minnesota Power&amp;#8217;s 2017 remaining life depreciation petition filed on February&amp;#160;1,&amp;#160;2017, Minnesota Power is seeking an extension of the recovery period for Boswell to better reflect recent environmental investments at the facility and mitigate rate increases for our customers. If approved, annual depreciation expense will be reduced by approximately &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;$25&amp;#160;million&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;. If the requested recovery period extension is not approved, we would expect final rates to be increased by a similar amount, subject to regulatory approval. We cannot predict the level of final rates that may be authorized by the MPUC. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;"&gt;Energy-Intensive Trade-Exposed (EITE) Customer Rates.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; The Minnesota Legislature enacted EITE customer ratemaking law in 2015 which established that it is the energy policy of the state to have competitive rates for certain industries such as mining and forest products. In 2015, Minnesota Power filed a rate schedule petition with the MPUC for EITE customers and a corresponding rider for EITE cost recovery. In a March&amp;#160;2016 order, the MPUC dismissed the petition without prejudice, providing Minnesota Power the option to refile the petition with additional information or file a new petition. In June 2016, Minnesota Power filed a revised EITE petition with the MPUC which included additional information on the net benefits analysis, limits on eligible customers and term lengths for the EITE discount. The MPUC approved a reduction in rates for EITE customers in a December&amp;#160;2016 order and subsequently approved cost recovery in an order dated April&amp;#160;20,&amp;#160;2017. The rate adjustments are revenue and cash flow neutral to Minnesota Power.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;"&gt;FERC-Approved Wholesale Rates. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;Minnesota Power has &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;16&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; non-affiliated municipal customers in Minnesota. SWL&amp;amp;P is a Wisconsin utility and a wholesale customer of Minnesota Power. All wholesale contracts include a termination clause requiring a &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;three&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;-year notice to terminate.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;In 2015, Minnesota Power amended its formula-based wholesale electric sales contract with the Nashwauk Public Utilities Commission, extending the term through June&amp;#160;30,&amp;#160;2028. No termination notice may be given for this contract prior to June&amp;#160;30,&amp;#160;2025. The electric service agreements with SWL&amp;amp;P and another municipal customer are effective through January 31, 2020 and June&amp;#160;30,&amp;#160;2019, respectively. Under the agreement with SWL&amp;amp;P, no termination notice may be given prior to April 30,&amp;#160;2017. The other municipal customer provided termination notice for its contract in June&amp;#160;2016. Minnesota Power currently provides approximately &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;29&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; MW of average monthly demand to this customer. The rates included in these &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;three&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; contracts are set each July&amp;#160;1 based on a cost-based formula methodology, using estimated costs and a rate of return that is equal to Minnesota Power&amp;#8217;s authorized rate of return for Minnesota retail customers (currently &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;10.38 percent&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;). The formula-based rate methodology also provides for a yearly true-up calculation for actual costs incurred.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;In 2015, Minnesota Power amended its wholesale electric contracts with &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;14&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; municipal customers, extending the contract terms through December&amp;#160;31,&amp;#160;2024. No termination notices may be given prior to December&amp;#160;31,&amp;#160;2021. These contracts include fixed capacity charges through 2018; beginning in&amp;#160;2019, the capacity charge will not increase by more than &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;two percent&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; or decrease by more than &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;one percent&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; from the previous year&amp;#8217;s capacity charge and will be determined using a cost-based formula methodology. The base energy charge for each year of the contract term will be set each January&amp;#160;1, subject to monthly adjustment, and will also be determined using a cost-based formula methodology. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;"&gt;NOTE 6.&amp;#160;REGULATORY MATTERS (Continued)&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;"&gt;Electric Rates (Continued)&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;"&gt;Transmission Cost Recovery Rider.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; Minnesota Power has an approved cost recovery rider in place for certain transmission investments and expenditures. In a February&amp;#160;2016 order, the MPUC approved Minnesota Power&amp;#8217;s updated customer billing rates which allows Minnesota Power to charge retail customers on a current basis for the costs of constructing certain transmission facilities plus a return on the capital invested. As a result of the MPUC approval of the certificate of need for the GNTL in 2015, the project is eligible for cost recovery under the existing transmission cost recovery rider. Minnesota Power is funding the construction of the GNTL with Manitoba Hydro (see &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;"&gt;Great Northern Transmission Line&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;), and anticipates including its portion of the investments and expenditures for the GNTL in future transmission cost recovery filings.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;"&gt;Renewable Cost Recovery Rider.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; Minnesota Power has an approved cost recovery rider in place for investments and expenditures related to Bison and the restoration and repair of Thomson. Updated customer billing rates for the renewable cost recovery rider were approved by the MPUC in a December&amp;#160;2016 order, which allows Minnesota Power to charge retail customers on a current basis for the costs of constructing certain renewable investments plus a return on the capital invested. The approval is on a provisional basis pending the outcome of Minnesota Power&amp;#8217;s 2016 general rate case. (See&amp;#160;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;"&gt;2016&amp;#160;Minnesota General Rate Case.)&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;In a November&amp;#160;2016 order, the MPUC directed Minnesota Power to attribute all North Dakota investment tax credits realized from Bison to Minnesota Power regulated retail customers. As a result of the adverse regulatory outcome, Minnesota Power recorded a regulatory liability and a reduction in operating revenue of &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;$15.0&amp;#160;million&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; in 2016. The North Dakota investment tax credits previously recognized as income tax credits in Corporate and Other were reversed in 2016 resulting in an &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;$8.8 million&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; charge to net income for the year ended December 31, 2016. In December 2016, Minnesota Power submitted a request for reconsideration with the MPUC. In an order dated February&amp;#160;14,&amp;#160;2017, the MPUC decided to reconsider its November&amp;#160;2016 order and requested comments by June&amp;#160;30,&amp;#160;2017. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;Prior to the November 2016 MPUC order, Minnesota Power accounted for North Dakota investment tax credits based on the long&amp;#8209;standing regulatory precedents of stand-alone allocation methodology of accounting for income taxes. The stand-alone method provides that income taxes (and credits) are calculated as if Minnesota Power was the only entity included in ALLETE&amp;#8217;s consolidated federal and unitary state income tax returns. Minnesota Power had recorded a regulatory liability for North Dakota investment tax credits generated by its jurisdictional activity and expected to be realized in the future. North Dakota investment tax credits attributable to ALLETE&amp;#8217;s apportionment and income of ALLETE&amp;#8217;s other subsidiaries were included in the ALLETE consolidated group. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;Minnesota Power also has approval for current cost recovery of investments and expenditures related to compliance with the Minnesota Solar Energy Standard. (See &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;"&gt;Minnesota Solar Energy Standard.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;) Currently, there is no approved customer billing rate for solar costs. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;"&gt;Environmental Improvement Rider&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;. Minnesota Power has an approved environmental improvement rider in place for investments and expenditures related to the implementation of the Boswell Unit 4 mercury emissions reduction plan completed in 2015. Updated customer billing rates for the environmental improvement rider were approved by the MPUC in a December 2016 order; however, in an order dated March&amp;#160;22,&amp;#160;2017, the MPUC approved a request by Minnesota Power to delay implementation of the updated rates until resolution of its 2016 general rate case. (See&amp;#160;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;"&gt;2016&amp;#160;Minnesota General Rate Case.)&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;"&gt;2016 Wisconsin General Rate Case.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:bold;"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;SWL&amp;amp;P&amp;#8217;s current retail rates are based on a 2012 PSCW retail rate order that allows for a &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;10.9 percent&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; return on common equity. In June 2016, SWL&amp;amp;P filed a rate increase request with the PSCW requesting an average increase of &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;3.1 percent&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; for retail customers (&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;3.5 percent&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; increase in electric rates; &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;1.3 percent&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; decrease in natural gas rates; and &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;7.8&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&amp;#160;percent increase in water rates). The filing seeks an overall return on equity of &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;10.9 percent&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; and a &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;55 percent&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; equity ratio. On an annualized basis, the requested rate increase would generate approximately &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;$2.7 million&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; in additional revenue. The Company anticipates new rates will take effect in mid-2017. We cannot predict the level of rates that may be approved by the PSCW.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;"&gt;Integrated Resource Plan.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:bold;"&gt; &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;In 2015, Minnesota Power filed its 2015 IRP with the MPUC which included an analysis of a variety of existing and future energy resource alternatives and a projection of customer cost impact by class. The 2015 IRP also contained the next steps in Minnesota Power&amp;#8217;s &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;"&gt;EnergyForward&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; plan including the economic idling of Taconite Harbor Units 1 and 2 which occurred in September 2016, the ceasing of coal-fired operations at Taconite Harbor in 2020, and the addition of between &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;200&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&amp;#160;MW and &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;300&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; MW of natural gas-fired generation in the next decade.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;"&gt;NOTE 6.&amp;#160;REGULATORY MATTERS (Continued)&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;"&gt;Integrated Resource Plan (Continued)&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;In a July&amp;#160;2016 order, the MPUC approved Minnesota Power&amp;#8217;s 2015 IRP with modifications. The order accepts Minnesota Power&amp;#8217;s plans for Taconite Harbor, directs Minnesota Power to retire Boswell Units 1 and 2 no later than 2022, requires an analysis of generation and demand response alternatives to be filed with a natural gas resource proposal, and requires Minnesota Power to conduct request for proposals for additional wind, solar and demand response resource additions subject to further MPUC approvals. In October&amp;#160;2016, Minnesota Power announced Boswell Units 1 and 2 will be retired in 2018 as the latest step in its &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;"&gt;EnergyForward&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; strategic plan. Minnesota Power&amp;#8217;s next IRP must be filed by February 1, 2018.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;"&gt;Great Northern Transmission Line&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:bold;"&gt;.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; Minnesota Power and Manitoba Hydro have proposed construction of the GNTL, an approximately &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;220&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;-mile &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;500&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;-kV transmission line between Manitoba and Minnesota&amp;#8217;s Iron Range. In 2015, a certificate of need was approved by the MPUC. Based on this order, Minnesota Power&amp;#8217;s portion of the investments and expenditures for the project are eligible for cost recovery under its existing transmission cost recovery rider and are anticipated to be included in future transmission cost recovery filings. (See &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;"&gt;Transmission Cost Recovery Rider&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;.) In 2015, the FERC approved our request to recover on construction work in progress related to the GNTL from Minnesota Power&amp;#8217;s wholesale customers. In an April&amp;#160;2016 order, the MPUC approved the route permit for the GNTL which largely follows Minnesota Power&amp;#8217;s preferred route, including the international border crossing, and in November&amp;#160;2016, the U.S. Department of Energy issued a presidential permit to cross the U.S.-Canadian border, which was the final major regulatory approval needed before construction in the U.S. could begin. Site clearing and pre-construction activities commenced in the first quarter of 2017 with construction expected to be completed in 2020. Total project cost in the U.S., including substation work, is estimated to be between &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;$560 million&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; and &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;$710&amp;#160;million&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;, of which Minnesota Power&amp;#8217;s portion is expected to be between &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;$300 million&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; and &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;$350 million&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;; the difference will be recovered from a subsidiary of Manitoba Hydro as contributions in aid of construction. Total project costs of &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;$56.8 million&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; have been incurred through March&amp;#160;31,&amp;#160;2017, of which &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;$29.6 million&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; has been recovered from a subsidiary of Manitoba Hydro.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;Manitoba Hydro must obtain regulatory and governmental approvals related to a new transmission line in Canada. In 2015, Manitoba Hydro submitted the final preferred route and EIS for the transmission line in Canada to the Manitoba Conservation and Water Stewardship for regulatory approval. Construction of Manitoba Hydro&amp;#8217;s hydroelectric generation facility commenced in 2014.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;"&gt;MISO Return on Equity Complaints.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; In 2013, several customer groups located within the MISO service area filed complaints with the FERC requesting, among other things, a reduction in the base return on equity used by MISO transmission owners, including ALLETE and ATC, to &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;9.15 percent&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;. In 2015, a federal administrative law judge ruled on the complaint proposing a reduction in the base return on equity to &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;10.32 percent&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;, or &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;10.82 percent&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; including an incentive adder for participation in a regional transmission organization. In September 2016, the FERC issued an order affirming the administrative law judge&amp;#8217;s recommendation. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;In 2015, an additional complaint was filed with the FERC seeking an order to further reduce the base return on equity to &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;8.67&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&amp;#160;percent. In June 2016, a federal administrative law judge ruled on the additional complaint proposing a further reduction in the base return on equity to &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;9.70 percent&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;, or &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;10.20 percent&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; including an incentive adder for participation in a regional transmission organization, subject to approval or adjustment by the FERC. A final decision from the FERC on the administrative law judge&amp;#8217;s recommendation is expected in 2017. The final decision from the FERC is not expected to have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;"&gt;Minnesota Solar Energy Standard. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;In 2013, legislation was enacted by the state of Minnesota requiring at least &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;1.5 percent&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; of total retail electric sales, excluding sales to certain customers, to be generated by solar energy by the end of 2020. At least &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;10&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&amp;#160;percent of the &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;1.5 percent&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; mandate must be met by solar energy generated by or procured from solar photovoltaic devices with a nameplate capacity of 20 kW or less. Minnesota Power has &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;two&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; completed solar projects and another solar project is under development. In 2015, Minnesota Power filed for MPUC approval of a &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;10&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; MW utility scale solar project at the Camp Ripley Minnesota Army National Guard base and training facility near Little Falls, Minnesota. In a February 2016 order, the MPUC approved Camp Ripley as eligible to meet the solar energy standard and for current cost recovery, which was subsequently finalized by the MPUC in a December&amp;#160;2016 order. Camp Ripley was completed in the fourth quarter of 2016. In 2015, Minnesota Power filed for MPUC approval of a community solar garden project in northeastern Minnesota, which is comprised of a &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;1&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; MW solar array to be owned and operated by a third party with the output purchased by Minnesota Power and a 40 kW solar array that is owned and operated by Minnesota Power. In a July 2016 order, the MPUC approved the community solar garden project and cost recovery, subject to certain compliance requirements. Minnesota Power believes these projects will meet approximately one-third of the overall mandate. Additionally, in an order dated February 10, 2017, the MPUC approved Minnesota Power&amp;#8217;s proposal to increase the amount of solar rebates available for customer-sited solar installations and recover costs of the program through Minnesota Power&amp;#8217;s renewable cost recovery rider. This proposal to incentivize customer-sited solar installations is expected to meet a portion of the required mandate related to solar photovoltaic devices with a nameplate capacity of 20&amp;#160;kW or less. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;"&gt;NOTE 6.&amp;#160;REGULATORY MATTERS (Continued)&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;br clear="none"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;"&gt;Regulatory Assets and Liabilities.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; Our regulated utility operations are subject to accounting guidance for the effect of certain types of regulation. Regulatory assets represent incurred costs that have been deferred as they are probable for recovery in customer rates. Regulatory liabilities represent obligations to make refunds to customers and amounts collected in rates for which the related costs have not yet been incurred. The Company assesses quarterly whether regulatory assets and liabilities meet the criteria for probability of future recovery or deferral. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt;No regulatory assets or liabilities are currently earning a return.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"&gt; The recovery, refund or credit to rates for these regulatory assets and liabilities will occur over the periods either specified by the applicable regulatory authority or over the corresponding period related to the asset or liability.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height:120%;padding-top:6px;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;div

The stand-alone method provides that income taxes (and credits) are calculated as if Minnesota Power was the only entity included in ALLETE&amp;#8217;s consolidated federal and unitary state income tax returns. Minnesota Power had recorded a regulatory liability for North Dakota investment tax credits generated by its jurisdictional activity and expected to be realized in the future.

style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory. </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">In 2015, the FASB issued an accounting standard which requires entities that measure inventory using the first-in, first-out or average cost methods to measure inventory at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Net realizable value is defined as estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation. This accounting guidance was adopted in the first quarter of 2017 and did not have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting.&#160;</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">In March 2016, the FASB issued guidance to simplify the accounting for share-based payment transactions by requiring all excess tax benefits and deficiencies to be recognized in income tax expense or benefit in earnings, thus eliminating the requirement to classify the excess tax benefit and deficiencies as additional paid-in capital. Under the new guidance, an entity makes an accounting policy election to either estimate the expected forfeiture awards or account for forfeitures as they occur. This accounting guidance was adopted in the first quarter of 2017. The adoption of this guidance is expected to result in a less than </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$1 million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> impact to income tax expense (benefit) annually.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;">NOTE 1.

The clarifying guidance will also impact other areas including the accounting for goodwill and consolidation. This accounting guidance was adopted in the first quarter of 2017 and did not have an impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:bold;">Recently Issued Pronouncements</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">In January 2017, the FASB issued updated guidance which simplifies the measurement of goodwill impairment by removing step two of the goodwill impairment test that requires the determination of the fair value of individual assets and liabilities of a reporting unit. The updated guidance requires goodwill impairment to be measured as the amount by which a reporting unit&#8217;s carrying value exceeds its fair value; however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. This guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2020, with early adoption permitted on a prospective basis. </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost. </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">In March 2017, the FASB issued guidance to improve the presentation of net periodic pension and postretirement benefit costs. Under the new guidance, an entity shall present the service cost component of the net periodic benefit cost in the same income statement line as other employee compensation costs arising from services rendered during the period. The guidance also allows only the service cost component of the periodic expense to be eligible for capitalization. The other components of net periodic expense will be presented separately from the line item that includes the service cost and will be excluded from the operating income subtotal. This accounting guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2018. The adoption of this guidance by the Company is expected to result in higher operating expense and lower operating income. This guidance is not expected to have an impact on net income. We will continue to evaluate the impact of this standard on our Consolidated Financial Statements. </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">Revenue from Contracts with Customers.</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> In 2014, the FASB issued amended revenue recognition guidance to clarify the principles for recognizing revenue from contracts with customers. The guidance requires an entity to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance also requires expanded disclosures relating to the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. Additionally, qualitative and quantitative disclosures are required regarding customer contracts, significant judgments and changes in judgments, and assets recognized from the costs to obtain or fulfill a contract. The Company is considering the impact of the new guidance on its ability to recognize revenue from certain contracts where collectibility is in question and bundled sales contracts and contracts with pricing provisions that may require it to recognize revenue at prices other than the contract price (e.g., straight line or estimated future market prices). The guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2018 with early adoption permitted. The Company will adopt this guidance for our fiscal year beginning January 1, 2018.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">Leases.</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> In February 2016, the FASB issued an accounting standard update which revises the existing guidance for leases. Under the revised guidance, lessees will be required to recognize a &#8220;right-of-use&#8221; asset and a lease liability for all leases with a term greater than 12 months. The new standard also requires additional quantitative and qualitative disclosures by lessees and lessors to enable users of the financial statements to assess the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. The accounting for leases by lessors and the recognition, measurement and presentation of expenses and cash flows from leases are not expected to significantly change as a result of the updated guidance. The revised guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2019 with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of the amended lease guidance on our Consolidated Financial Statements.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">Financial Instruments</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">. In January 2016, the FASB issued an accounting standard update which requires entities to measure their investments at fair value and recognize any changes in fair value in net income unless the investments qualify for the new practicability exception. The practicability exception will be available for equity investments that do not have readily determinable fair values. The updated guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2018. We are currently evaluating the impact that the standard will have on our Consolidated Financial Statements.  </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;">NOTE 1.

This accounting guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2018. The guidance will result in changes to the Company&#8217;s Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows relating to debt prepayments, contingent consideration payments, proceeds from insurance settlements, proceeds from corporate-owned life insurance policies and distributions received from equity method investees.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">Statement of Cash Flows: Restricted Cash. </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">In November 2016, the FASB issued an accounting standard update related to the presentation of restricted cash in the Company&#8217;s Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. The update requires that the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows explain the change during the period in cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash. Restricted cash should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. This accounting guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2018. The Company plans to adopt this guidance for our fiscal year beginning January 1, 2018, and the guidance will result in changes to the Company&#8217;s Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows such that restricted cash amounts will be included in the beginning-of-period and end-of-period cash and cash equivalents totals. </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;">Revision of Prior Balance Sheet.</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> During the first quarter of 2017, the Company identified an error related to the deferred income tax treatment associated with its Wholesale and Retail Contra AFUDC Regulatory Liability. The Company evaluated the materiality of the error and concluded it was not material to any previously issued historical financial statements. The Company has revised its historical Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2016, by decreasing Regulatory Assets and Deferred Income Taxes by </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$29.5 million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">. The correction had no impact on our Consolidated Statement of Income.</font></div></div><span></span>

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 discussed in Note 9. Fair Value to the Consolidated Financial Statements in our </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;color:#000000;text-decoration:none;">2016</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> Form 10-K.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">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 </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;color:#000000;text-decoration:none;">March&#160;31,&#160;2017</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">, and </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;color:#000000;text-decoration:none;">December&#160;31,&#160;2016</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">. 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 these assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy levels. The estimated fair value of Cash and Cash Equivalents listed on the Consolidated Balance Sheet approximates the carrying amount and therefore is excluded from the recurring fair value measures in the following tables.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;">NOTE 5.

As authorized by the MPUC, Minnesota Power also recognizes revenue under cost recovery riders for transmission, renewable and environmental investments and expenditures.

The rate filing seeks a return on equity of </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">10.25</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#160;percent and a </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">53.8 percent</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> equity ratio. On an annualized basis, the requested final rate increase would have generated approximately </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$55&#160;million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> in additional revenue. In December&#160;2016, Minnesota Power filed a request to modify its original interim rate proposal reducing its requested interim rate increase to </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$34.7&#160;million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> from the original request of approximately </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$49 million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> due to a change in its electric sales forecast. In December&#160;2016 orders, the MPUC accepted the November 2016 filing as complete and authorized an annual interim rate increase of </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$34.7&#160;million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> beginning January&#160;1,&#160;2017. </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">On February&#160;23,&#160;2017, Minnesota Power filed an additional request to further reduce its requested interim rate increase. In an order dated April 13, 2017, the MPUC approved Minnesota Power&#8217;s updated retail rate request resulting in a reduction in the annual interim rate increase to </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$32.2&#160;million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> beginning May&#160;1,&#160;2017. On February 28, 2017, Minnesota Power filed an update to its rate increase request, reducing its requested final retail rate increase from approximately </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$55 million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> to approximately </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$39&#160;million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> on an annualized basis. As of March&#160;31,&#160;2017, Minnesota Power has not received any indication that a refund of interim rates will be necessary. Management will continue to evaluate the need for a reserve for interim rates as the 2016 general rate case proceeds.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">As part of the 2016 Minnesota general rate request and through Minnesota Power&#8217;s 2017 remaining life depreciation petition filed on February&#160;1,&#160;2017, Minnesota Power is seeking an extension of the recovery period for Boswell to better reflect recent environmental investments at the facility and mitigate rate increases for our customers. If approved, annual depreciation expense will be reduced by approximately </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$25&#160;million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">. If the requested recovery period extension is not approved, we would expect final rates to be increased by a similar amount, subject to regulatory approval.

In 2015, Minnesota Power filed a rate schedule petition with the MPUC for EITE customers and a corresponding rider for EITE cost recovery. In a March&#160;2016 order, the MPUC dismissed the petition without prejudice, providing Minnesota Power the option to refile the petition with additional information or file a new petition. In June 2016, Minnesota Power filed a revised EITE petition with the MPUC which included additional information on the net benefits analysis, limits on eligible customers and term lengths for the EITE discount. The MPUC approved a reduction in rates for EITE customers in a December&#160;2016 order and subsequently approved cost recovery in an order dated April&#160;20,&#160;2017. The rate adjustments are revenue and cash flow neutral to Minnesota Power.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">FERC-Approved Wholesale Rates. </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">Minnesota Power has </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">16</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> non-affiliated municipal customers in Minnesota.

No termination notice may be given for this contract prior to June&#160;30,&#160;2025. The electric service agreements with SWL&amp;P and another municipal customer are effective through January 31, 2020 and June&#160;30,&#160;2019, respectively. Under the agreement with SWL&amp;P, no termination notice may be given prior to April 30,&#160;2017. The other municipal customer provided termination notice for its contract in June&#160;2016. Minnesota Power currently provides approximately </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">29</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> MW of average monthly demand to this customer.

In a February&#160;2016 order, the MPUC approved Minnesota Power&#8217;s updated customer billing rates which allows Minnesota Power to charge retail customers on a current basis for the costs of constructing certain transmission facilities plus a return on the capital invested. As a result of the MPUC approval of the certificate of need for the GNTL in 2015, the project is eligible for cost recovery under the existing transmission cost recovery rider. Minnesota Power is funding the construction of the GNTL with Manitoba Hydro (see </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">Great Northern Transmission Line</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">), and anticipates including its portion of the investments and expenditures for the GNTL in future transmission cost recovery filings.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">Renewable Cost Recovery Rider.</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> Minnesota Power has an approved cost recovery rider in place for investments and expenditures related to Bison and the restoration and repair of Thomson.

The stand-alone method provides that income taxes (and credits) are calculated as if Minnesota Power was the only entity included in ALLETE&#8217;s consolidated federal and unitary state income tax returns. Minnesota Power had recorded a regulatory liability for North Dakota investment tax credits generated by its jurisdictional activity and expected to be realized in the future.

The Notes will be issued on or about June 1, 2017, carry an interest rate of </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">3.11 percent</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> and mature on June 1, 2027.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">Interest on the Notes is payable semi-annually on June 1 and December 1 of each year, commencing on December 1, 2017. The Company has the option to prepay all or a portion of the Notes at its discretion, subject to a make-whole provision. The Notes are subject to additional terms and conditions which are customary for these types of transactions. Proceeds from the sale of the Notes will be used to redeem debt, fund corporate growth opportunities and/or for general corporate purposes.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;">Financial Covenants.</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> 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. Our compliance with financial covenants is not dependent on debt ratings. The most restrictive financial covenant requires ALLETE&#160;to maintain a ratio of indebtedness to total capitalization (as the amounts are calculated in accordance with the respective long-term debt arrangements) of less than or equal to </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">0.65 to 1.00</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">, measured quarterly. As of </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;color:#000000;text-decoration:none;">March&#160;31,&#160;2017</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">, our ratio was approximately </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">0.43 to 1.00</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">. 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&#8217;s debt arrangements contain &#8220;cross-default&#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 </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;color:#000000;text-decoration:none;">March&#160;31,&#160;2017</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">, ALLETE was in compliance with its financial covenants.</font></div></div><span></span>

These include the GNTL, investments to enhance our own transmission facilities, investments in other transmission assets (individually or in combination with others) and our investment in ATC. </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">Great Northern Transmission Line.</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> As a condition of the </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">250</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">-MW long-term PPA entered into with Manitoba Hydro, construction of additional transmission capacity is required. As a result, Minnesota Power and Manitoba Hydro proposed construction of the GNTL, an approximately </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">220</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">-mile </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">500</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">-kV transmission line between Manitoba and Minnesota&#8217;s Iron Range in order to strengthen the electric grid, enhance regional reliability and promote a greater exchange of sustainable energy.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;">NOTE 13.&#160;COMMITMENTS, GUARANTEES AND CONTINGENCIES (Continued)</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;">Transmission (Continued)</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">In 2015, a certificate of need was approved by the MPUC. Based on this order, Minnesota Power&#8217;s portion of the investments and expenditures for the project are eligible for cost recovery under its existing transmission cost recovery rider and are anticipated to be included in future transmission cost recovery filings. (See Note 6. Regulatory Matters.) In 2015, the FERC approved our request to recover on construction work in progress related to the GNTL from Minnesota Power&#8217;s wholesale customers. In an April&#160;2016 order, the MPUC approved the route permit for the GNTL which largely follows Minnesota Power&#8217;s preferred route, including the international border crossing, and in November&#160;2016, the U.S. Department of Energy issued a presidential permit to cross the U.S.-Canadian border, which was the final major regulatory approval needed before construction in the U.S. could begin. Site clearing and pre-construction activities commenced in the first quarter of 2017 with construction expected to be completed in 2020. Total project cost in the U.S., including substation work, is estimated to be between </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$560 million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> and </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$710&#160;million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">, of which Minnesota Power&#8217;s portion is expected to be between </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$300 million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> and </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$350 million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">; the difference will be recovered from a subsidiary of Manitoba Hydro as contributions in aid of construction. Total project costs of </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$56.8 million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> have been incurred through March&#160;31,&#160;2017, of which </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$29.6 million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> has been recovered from a subsidiary of Manitoba Hydro.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">Manitoba Hydro must obtain regulatory and governmental approvals related to a new transmission line in Canada.

A number of regulatory changes to the Clean Air Act, the Clean Water Act and various waste management requirements have recently been promulgated by both the EPA and state authorities. Minnesota Power&#8217;s facilities are subject to additional regulation under many of these regulations. In response to these regulations, Minnesota Power is reshaping its generation portfolio over time to reduce its reliance on coal, has installed cost-effective emission control technology, and advocates for sound science and policy during rulemaking implementation.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">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. We anticipate that with many state and federal environmental regulations finalized, or to be finalized in the near future, potential expenditures for future environmental matters may be material and may require significant capital investments. Minnesota Power has evaluated various environmental compliance scenarios using possible outcomes of environmental regulations to project power supply trends and impacts on customers.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">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. Accruals are adjusted as assessment and remediation efforts progress, or as additional technical or legal information becomes 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.

Minnesota Power received an additional NOV in 2011 alleging that two projects undertaken at Rapids Energy Center in 2004 and 2005 should have been reviewed under the NSR requirements and that the Rapids Energy Center&#8217;s Title V permit was violated. Minnesota Power reached a settlement with the EPA regarding these NOVs and entered into a Consent Decree which was approved by the U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota in&#160;2014. The Consent Decree provided for, among other requirements, more stringent emissions limits at all affected units, the option of refueling, retrofits or retirements at certain small coal units, and the addition of </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">200</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> MW of wind energy. Provisions of the Consent Decree require that, by no later than December 31, 2018, Boswell Units 1 and 2 must be retired, refueled, repowered, or emissions rerouted through existing emission control technology at Boswell. In October 2016, Minnesota Power announced that Boswell Units 1 and 2 will be retired in 2018 as the latest step in its </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">EnergyForward </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">strategic plan. We believe that costs to retire will be eligible for recovery in rates over time, subject to regulatory approval in a rate proceeding.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">Cross-State Air Pollution Rule (CSAPR).</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> The CSAPR requires a total of 28 states in the eastern half of the U.S., including Minnesota, to reduce power plant emissions that contribute to ozone or fine particulate pollution in other states.&#160;The CSAPR does not require installation of controls; rather it requires that facilities have sufficient allowances to cover their emissions on an annual basis. These allowances are allocated to facilities from each state&#8217;s annual budget, and can be bought and sold.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">Minnesota Power&#8217;s generation levels and emission rates in 2015 and 2016 were below its allowances.

The EPA published the final MATS rule in the Federal Register in&#160;2012, addressing such emissions from coal-fired utility units greater than 25 MW. There are currently 187 listed HAPs that the EPA is required to evaluate for establishment of MACT standards. In the final MATS rule, the EPA established categories of HAPs, including mercury, trace metals other than mercury, acid gases, dioxin/furans and organics other than dioxin/furans. The EPA also established emission limits for the first three categories of HAPs and work practice standards for the remaining categories. Affected sources were required to be in compliance with the rule by April 2015. States had the authority to grant sources a one-year extension. The MPCA approved Minnesota Power&#8217;s request for an extension of the date of compliance for the Boswell Unit 4 environmental upgrade to April 2016. Construction on the project to implement the Boswell Unit 4 mercury emissions reduction plan was completed in 2015. Boswell Unit 3 is also subject to the MATS rule; however, investments and compliance work completed at Boswell Unit 3, including emission reduction investments completed in 2009, meet the requirements of the MATS rule. The conversion of Laskin Units&#160;1 and 2 to natural gas in 2015 positioned those units for MATS compliance. </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">In 2015, the U.S. Supreme Court reversed and remanded an earlier U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit decision on the MATS rule. The U.S. Supreme Court ruled that it was unreasonable for the EPA to deem cost of compliance irrelevant in determining that regulation of emissions of hazardous air pollutants from power plants was &#8220;appropriate and necessary&#8221; under Section 112 of the Clean Air Act. The MATS rule remains in effect until the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit acts on the remand. In 2015, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit rejected a motion by utilities and states to vacate the MATS rule, instead ordering the rule to remain in effect while the EPA completes its review. In April 2016, the EPA announced its determination that the MATS rule is appropriate and necessary, even after considering cost of compliance. The outcome of these proceedings is not expected to have a material impact on Minnesota Power generation due to emission reduction obligations under the Minnesota Mercury Emissions Reduction Act and the Consent Decree.

Major existing sources had until January 2016, to achieve compliance with the final rule and July 2016, to perform initial compliance demonstrations. Minnesota Power&#8217;s Hibbard Renewable Energy Center and Rapids Energy Center are subject to this rule and are currently in compliance. Compliance consisted largely of adjustments to our operating practices; therefore, the costs for complying with the final rule were not material.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:bold;">National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS).</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> The EPA is required to review the NAAQS every five years. If the EPA determines that a state&#8217;s air quality is not in compliance with the NAAQS, the state is required to adopt plans describing how it will reduce emissions to attain the NAAQS. These state plans often include more stringent air emission limitations on sources of air pollutants than the NAAQS. Four NAAQS have either recently been revised or are currently proposed for revision, as described below.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">Ozone NAAQS. </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">The EPA has proposed more stringent control related to emissions that result in ground level ozone. In 2010, the EPA proposed to revise the 2008 eight-hour ozone standard of 75 parts per billion (ppb) and to adopt a secondary standard for the protection of sensitive vegetation from ozone-related damage. In 2015, the EPA published the final rule in the Federal Register revising the eight-hour ozone standard to 70 ppb with a secondary standard also set at 70 ppb. All areas of Minnesota currently meet the new standard based on the most recent available ambient monitoring data; however, some areas in the metropolitan Twin Cities and southwest portion of the state are close to exceeding the standard. As a result, voluntary efforts to reduce ozone continue in the state. </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">No</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> additional costs for compliance are anticipated at this time.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">Particulate Matter NAAQS. </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">The EPA finalized the Particulate Matter NAAQS in&#160;2006.

The EPA asked states to submit attainment designations by 2013, based on already available monitoring data, and issued designations of the 2012 revised primary annual fine particulate attainment status in&#160;2014. The EPA designated the entire state of Minnesota as unclassifiable/attainment; however, Minnesota sources may ultimately be required to reduce their emissions to assist with attainment in neighboring states. In September 2016, environmental groups filed a lawsuit against the EPA in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California alleging the EPA had failed to fully implement the PM</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><sub style="vertical-align:bottom;line-height:120%;font-size:7pt">2.5 </sub></font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">standards in 24 states, including Minnesota, by not enforcing states&#8217; submittals of required infrastructure SIPs for the 2012 PM</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><sub style="vertical-align:bottom;line-height:120%;font-size:7pt">2.5 </sub></font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">NAAQS.

In 2012, the MPCA notified Minnesota Power that modeling had been suspended as a result of the EPA&#8217;s announcement that the SIP submittals would not require modeling demonstrations for states, such as Minnesota, where ambient monitors indicate compliance with the standard. The EPA notified states that their infrastructure SIPs for maintaining attainment of the standard were required to be submitted to the EPA for approval by 2013; however, the State of Minnesota delayed completing the documents pending EPA guidance to states for preparing the SIP submittal. </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">In 2013, the EPA provided guidance to states regarding implementation of the one-hour NO</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><sub style="vertical-align:bottom;line-height:120%;font-size:7pt">2</sub></font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> NAAQS and in&#160;2014, as clarified in 2015, the MPCA submitted a SIP revision to the EPA addressing the infrastructure requirements of Sections 110(a)(1) and 110(a)(2) of the Clean Air Act in regards to the one-hour NO</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><sub style="vertical-align:bottom;line-height:120%;font-size:7pt">2</sub></font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> and SO</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><sub style="vertical-align:bottom;line-height:120%;font-size:7pt">2</sub></font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> NAAQS, among other standards.

Minnesota Power&#8217;s coal-fired generating facilities are already subject to regulation under PSD, so we anticipate that ultimately PSD for GHG will apply to our facilities, but the timing of the promulgation of a replacement for the Tailoring Rule is uncertain. The PSD applies to existing facilities only when they undertake a major modification that increases emissions. At this time, we are unable to predict the compliance costs that we might incur.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">In October 2016, the EPA published a proposed rule in the Federal Register to revise its PSD and Title V regulatory provisions concerning GHG emissions. In this proposed rule, the EPA proposes to amend its regulations to clarify that a source&#8217;s obligation to obtain a PSD or Title V permit is triggered only by non-GHG pollutants. If the PSD or Title V permitting requirements are triggered by non-GHG, NSR pollutants, then these programs will also apply to the source&#8217;s GHG emissions. The proposed rule, as currently written, is not expected to have a material impact on the Title V permitting for current operations. It is uncertain as to how the Title V permitting requirements will be affected by the March 28, 2017, Executive Order titled Promoting Energy Independence and Economic Growth.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">In 2014, the EPA announced a proposed rule under Section 111(d) of the Clean Air Act for existing power plants entitled &#8220;Carbon Pollution Emission Guidelines for Existing Stationary Sources: Electric Generating Units&#8221;, also referred to as the Clean Power Plan (CPP). The EPA issued the final CPP in 2015, together with a proposed federal implementation plan and a model rule for emissions trading. Petitions for review of the rule were filed with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit. In February&#160;2016, the U.S. Supreme Court issued an order staying the effectiveness of the rule until after the appellate court process is complete. In September 2016, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia heard oral arguments and is currently deliberating. The EPA is precluded from enforcing the CPP while the U.S. Supreme Court stay is in force; however, the MPCA has been holding a series of meetings on the CPP for educational and planning purposes in the interim. Minnesota Power has been actively involved in these MPCA meetings, and is closely monitoring the appeals process.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">If upheld, the CPP would establish uniform CO</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><sub style="vertical-align:bottom;line-height:120%;font-size:7pt">2</sub></font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> emission performance rates for existing fossil fuel-fired and natural gas-fired combined cycle generating units, setting state-specific goals for CO</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><sub style="vertical-align:bottom;line-height:120%;font-size:7pt">2</sub></font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> emissions from the power sector. State goals were determined based on CPP source-specific performance emission rates and each state&#8217;s mix of power plants. The EPA maintains such goals are achievable if a state undertakes a combination of measures across its power sector that constitutes the EPA&#8217;s guideline for a Best System of Emission Reductions (BSER). BSER is comprised of three building blocks: 1) improved fossil fuel power plant efficiency, 2) increased reliance on low-emitting power sources by generating more electricity from existing natural gas combined cycle units, and 3) building more zero- and low-emitting power sources, including renewable energy. States may also choose to include avoided CO</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><sub style="vertical-align:bottom;line-height:120%;font-size:7pt">2</sub></font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> emissions from customer energy efficiency measures for credit towards meeting state goals. The regulatory review initiated by the March 28, 2017, Executive Order titled Promoting Energy Independence and Economic Growth is directed to include Section 111(b) and 111(d) CPP provisions. In addition, the EPA has filed a motion with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit to hold CPP-related litigation in abeyance while the EPA is reviewing the rule. Minnesota Power is monitoring developments with respect to the CPP rule and related matters.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">State goals under the CPP are expressed as both mass-based and rate-based, and include interim goals to be met over the years 2022 through 2029, as well as a final goal to be met in 2030 and thereafter. Under the original schedule for the CPP, each state would have been required to develop a SIP by September 2016, or by September 6, 2018, if granted an extension. Due to the U.S. Supreme Court order staying the effectiveness of the CPP, those SIP submittal dates are not currently in effect. If the CPP is upheld at the completion of the appellate court process, all of the CPP regulatory deadlines are expected to be reset based on the length of time that the appeals process takes.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;">NOTE 13.&#160;COMMITMENTS, GUARANTEES AND CONTINGENCIES (Continued)</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;">Environmental Matters (Continued)</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">In developing its plan, a state may choose to meet either the mass-based or the rate-based goals.

The proposed regulations would require existing large power plants and manufacturing facilities that withdraw greater than 25&#160;percent of water from adjacent water bodies for cooling purposes, and have a design intake flow of greater than 2 million gallons per day, to limit the number of aquatic organisms that are impacted by the facility&#8217;s intake structure or cooling system. The Section 316(b) rule was effective in 2014. The Section 316(b) standards will be implemented through NPDES permits issued to the covered facilities with compliance timing dependent on individual NPDES renewal schedules. No NPDES permits for Minnesota Power generating facilities have been re-issued containing Section 316(b) requirements since the final rule was published, so at this time we are unable to determine the final cost of compliance. Should the MPCA require significant modifications to Minnesota Power&#8217;s intake structures, a preliminary assessment indicates costs of compliance up to </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$15 million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> over the next 5 years. Minnesota Power would seek recovery of any additional costs through a general rate case.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">Steam Electric Power Generating Effluent Guidelines. </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">In 2015, the EPA issued revised federal effluent limit guidelines (ELG) for steam electric power generating stations under the Clean Water Act.&#160;It sets effluent limits and prescribes BACT for several wastewater streams, including flue gas desulphurization (FGD) water and coal combustion landfill leachate. The ELG rule also prohibits the discharge of bottom and fly ash contact waters. Compliance with the final rule is required between November&#160;1,&#160;2018, and December&#160;31,&#160;2023. </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">We are reviewing the final rule and evaluating its potential impact on Minnesota Power&#8217;s operations, primarily at Boswell. Boswell currently discharges bottom ash contact water through its NPDES permit, and also has a closed-loop FGD system that does not currently discharge, but may do so in the future. Under the final ELG rule, bottom ash discharge would not be allowed and bottom ash contact water would either need to be re-used in a closed-loop process, routed to a FGD scrubber, or the bottom ash handling system would need to be converted to a dry process. If the FGD wastewater is discharged in the future, it would require additional wastewater treatment. Efforts have been underway at Boswell for several years to reduce the amount of water discharged and evaluate potential re-use options in its plant processes. Additional efforts are underway to determine if land application of certain wastewater streams under a state disposal system may be feasible.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">On April 12, 2017, the EPA announced that it would reconsider the final ELG rule and administratively stay the compliance dates set forth in the rule.&#160;The EPA has received seven petitions for review of the ELG rule, which were consolidated in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit in late 2015. The EPA has indicated they will also file a motion requesting that court to hold litigation challenging the ELG rule in abeyance while the EPA reconsiders the rule. All pending deadlines under the ELG rule will be stayed while the EPA re-examines it.&#160;Under the ELG rule schedule, required compliance activity deadlines could have been in place as soon as November 1, 2018. These deadlines could have included prescriptive wastewater treatment technology installation, as well as a ban on bottom ash contact water discharges.&#160;If the EPA&#8217;s reconsideration results in the rule being revised or rescinded, the authority to regulate bottom ash transport water and FGD wastewater would fall under existing Effluent Guidelines Limits and state resource agency purview.&#160; &#160;</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;">NOTE 13.&#160;COMMITMENTS, GUARANTEES AND CONTINGENCIES (Continued)</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;">Environmental Matters (Continued)</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">At this time, we cannot estimate what compliance costs we might incur related to these or other potential future water discharge regulations; however, the costs could be material, including costs associated with retrofits for bottom ash handling, pond dewatering, pond closure, and wastewater treatment and/or reuse.

Net realizable value is defined as estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation. This accounting guidance was adopted in the first quarter of 2017 and did not have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting.&#160;</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">In March 2016, the FASB issued guidance to simplify the accounting for share-based payment transactions by requiring all excess tax benefits and deficiencies to be recognized in income tax expense or benefit in earnings, thus eliminating the requirement to classify the excess tax benefit and deficiencies as additional paid-in capital. Under the new guidance, an entity makes an accounting policy election to either estimate the expected forfeiture awards or account for forfeitures as they occur. This accounting guidance was adopted in the first quarter of 2017. The adoption of this guidance is expected to result in a less than </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$1 million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> impact to income tax expense (benefit) annually.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;">NOTE 1.

The clarifying guidance will also impact other areas including the accounting for goodwill and consolidation. This accounting guidance was adopted in the first quarter of 2017 and did not have an impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:bold;">Recently Issued Pronouncements</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">In January 2017, the FASB issued updated guidance which simplifies the measurement of goodwill impairment by removing step two of the goodwill impairment test that requires the determination of the fair value of individual assets and liabilities of a reporting unit. The updated guidance requires goodwill impairment to be measured as the amount by which a reporting unit&#8217;s carrying value exceeds its fair value; however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. This guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2020, with early adoption permitted on a prospective basis. </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost. </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">In March 2017, the FASB issued guidance to improve the presentation of net periodic pension and postretirement benefit costs. Under the new guidance, an entity shall present the service cost component of the net periodic benefit cost in the same income statement line as other employee compensation costs arising from services rendered during the period. The guidance also allows only the service cost component of the periodic expense to be eligible for capitalization. The other components of net periodic expense will be presented separately from the line item that includes the service cost and will be excluded from the operating income subtotal. This accounting guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2018. The adoption of this guidance by the Company is expected to result in higher operating expense and lower operating income. This guidance is not expected to have an impact on net income. We will continue to evaluate the impact of this standard on our Consolidated Financial Statements. </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">Revenue from Contracts with Customers.</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> In 2014, the FASB issued amended revenue recognition guidance to clarify the principles for recognizing revenue from contracts with customers. The guidance requires an entity to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance also requires expanded disclosures relating to the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. Additionally, qualitative and quantitative disclosures are required regarding customer contracts, significant judgments and changes in judgments, and assets recognized from the costs to obtain or fulfill a contract. The Company is considering the impact of the new guidance on its ability to recognize revenue from certain contracts where collectibility is in question and bundled sales contracts and contracts with pricing provisions that may require it to recognize revenue at prices other than the contract price (e.g., straight line or estimated future market prices). The guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2018 with early adoption permitted. The Company will adopt this guidance for our fiscal year beginning January 1, 2018.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">Leases.</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> In February 2016, the FASB issued an accounting standard update which revises the existing guidance for leases. Under the revised guidance, lessees will be required to recognize a &#8220;right-of-use&#8221; asset and a lease liability for all leases with a term greater than 12 months. The new standard also requires additional quantitative and qualitative disclosures by lessees and lessors to enable users of the financial statements to assess the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. The accounting for leases by lessors and the recognition, measurement and presentation of expenses and cash flows from leases are not expected to significantly change as a result of the updated guidance. The revised guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2019 with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of the amended lease guidance on our Consolidated Financial Statements.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">Financial Instruments</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">. In January 2016, the FASB issued an accounting standard update which requires entities to measure their investments at fair value and recognize any changes in fair value in net income unless the investments qualify for the new practicability exception. The practicability exception will be available for equity investments that do not have readily determinable fair values. The updated guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2018. We are currently evaluating the impact that the standard will have on our Consolidated Financial Statements.  </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;">NOTE 1.

This accounting guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2018. The guidance will result in changes to the Company&#8217;s Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows relating to debt prepayments, contingent consideration payments, proceeds from insurance settlements, proceeds from corporate-owned life insurance policies and distributions received from equity method investees.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">Statement of Cash Flows: Restricted Cash. </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">In November 2016, the FASB issued an accounting standard update related to the presentation of restricted cash in the Company&#8217;s Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. The update requires that the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows explain the change during the period in cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash. Restricted cash should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. This accounting guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2018. The Company plans to adopt this guidance for our fiscal year beginning January 1, 2018, and the guidance will result in changes to the Company&#8217;s Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows such that restricted cash amounts will be included in the beginning-of-period and end-of-period cash and cash equivalents totals. </font></div></div><span></span>

The stand-alone method provides that income taxes (and credits) are calculated as if Minnesota Power was the only entity included in ALLETE&#8217;s consolidated federal and unitary state income tax returns. Minnesota Power had recorded a regulatory liability for North Dakota investment tax credits generated by its jurisdictional activity and expected to be realized in the future. North Dakota investment tax credits attributable to ALLETE&#8217;s apportionment and income of ALLETE&#8217;s other subsidiaries were included in the ALLETE consolidated group. </font></div></div><span></span>

Such costs are capitalized if they meet both of the following criteria: a. It is probable that future revenue in an amount at least equal to the capitalized cost will result from inclusion of that cost in allowable costs for rate-making purposes. b. Based on available evidence, the future revenue will be provided to permit recovery of the previously incurred cost rather than to provide for expected levels of similar future costs. If the revenue will be provided through an automatic rate-adjustment clause, this criterion requires that the regulator's intent clearly be to permit recovery of the previously incurred cost.</p></div>
