Chanute 2: FAQ

- Who owns Chanute 2?
- EIA-860M names City of Chanute (KS) as the reporting entity. That is the operator of record on the survey, which is not always the ultimate owner.
- Is this the same as Chanute 2 LLC?
- Probably, but EIA-860M does not say. The survey records a plant name and a reporting entity — City of Chanute (KS) here — not the project company that holds the asset.
