Burlington (CO): FAQ

Where is Burlington (CO)?
In Kit Carson County, Colorado (CO). The map on this page is placed at the coordinates EIA files for the plant, which locate the site rather than any individual unit.
How big is Burlington (CO)?

Who owns Burlington (CO)?
EIA-860M names Tri-State G & T Assn, Inc 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 Burlington (CO) LLC?
Probably, but EIA-860M does not say. The survey records a plant name and a reporting entity — Tri-State G & T Assn, Inc here — not the project company that holds the asset. Project companies are commonly registered as an LLC carrying the plant's name, so a search for "Burlington (CO) LLC" usually means this site. This page shows only what EIA files, and does not assert a corporate structure it cannot see.
Is Burlington (CO) still running?
