The last two tri-county area wind farm projects in the Article 10 siting process — both with significant public opposition — have been withdrawn from the process.
LOWVILLE â The last two tri-county area wind farm projects in the Article 10 siting process â both with significant public opposition â have been withdrawn from the process.
Some community groups against these projects see the withdrawal as a triumph while others as a shrewd move to change to the new siting process they believe is less strict and transparent.
James A. Muscato II, of Young Sommer Attorneys at Law in Albany, electronically filed a letter to the Siting Board stating they are âno longer seeking a Certificate of Environmental Compatibility and Public Needâ from the siting board for the Mad River Wind Farm on Dec. 7, on behalf of Atlantic Wind, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Avangrid Renewables.
