I hope my state requires the same.
But, it should be more--pay the full cost of expanding the power grid plus some additional amount beyond what they need for the use of the state, and pay for ongoing maintenance of the expansion.
Why? Because fuck 'em, that's why.
Because that's fair, and these people should have to pay true market value and the cost of healing the environmental damage. If that includes desalinization and reforestation, so be it.
