us an e-mail, write or call
with any questions you may
have pertaining to wind development
in the United States and Canada.
Our address information is
provided below. Kindly indicate
whether you are interested
in the installation of a turbine(s)
for educational, governmental,
commercial or industrial uses.
If you are in the process
of developing a wind turbine
project, it will be helpful
if you could provide surrounding
site information (see below)
so that we can better assess
the restrictions and/or opportunities
present for turbine placement.

elevations showing highest
point with respect to neighboring
acreage;
Available
weather data or wind history
records from nearby sources;
Description
of site’s topography
(e.g., soil types, raised
areas, slopes, valleys,
etc.);
Note any tall
structures, land features
