The public will be able to comment pro or con concerning the proposed New Market Solar I and II projects Tuesday evening at 6 p.m. via conference call or video link.
Hecate Energy proposes to develop, build and operate the 100-megawatt (MW) solar powered electric power generation facility in southeastern Highland County on over 1,000 acres of land in Clay and Whiteoak townships.
The company said that Tuesday’s hearing will allow the Ohio Power Siting Board (OPSB) to hear written or oral testimony concerning the solar panel farm, and that any testimony would be limited to five minutes.
