After the release of the
Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS)
for the Jordanville Wind Farm, a public
comment period ensued. Specific concerns
were raised regarding the possibility of
adverse impacts of wind turbines on scenic,
cultural, and historical resources in Otsego
County. In response to these comments,
an expanded Visual Impact Assessment was
carried out and included in the Supplement
to the DEIS, which was released in mid-November.
The results are in and YOU can be the
judge! Compare these photos on each page
and decide for yourself if the Jordanville
Wind Farm will have an adverse impact on
Otsego County’s scenic, cultural,
and historical resources…
