What the source record says
Location is a representative point at Island Lake in Kalkaska Township, Kalkaska County -- the state-land parcel was never assigned a street address in any source found (checked 2026-09-13). Coverage places it 'near Island Lake and South River roads'; a data-center directory listing (baxtel.com) separately gives 'N River Rd, Kalkaska Township, MI' for the same withdrawn project -- the two road names were not reconciled to a single confirmed segment, so precision is set to approximate rather than exact. A community informational meeting tied to this project was separately reported as scheduled/cancelled in Coldsprings Township, a different township in the same county; that is the meeting venue, not the project site.
Any MW value is reproduced as source-reported context. Its measurement boundary is not established consistently enough for comparison. Unknown is not zero.

- 2025-11-20 · reported cancelled
Rocklocker withdrew the proposal after public opposition and the DNR's rejection of the state-land purchase request.
