PBR must protect adjoining county lands in any proposed industrial wind project
 

The PBR Wind Turbine application process must allow protection for adjoining counties of any proposed turbine project.  The intense negative impacts of industrial turbines cross jurisdictional lines and all adjoining counties must have a voice in the approval process.  The case of the proposed Rocky Forge project by Apex is a toxic example of proposed turbines destroying the scenic economy of multiple counties.
