The winds blowing into Humboldt County from the Pacific make it an attractive place to consider generating electricity from wind. And the renewable energy company Terra-Gen plans to do just that.
The project proposal is bold in scale, with up to 60 wind turbines envisioned for high ground near Scotia and Rio Dell. The visual impact is a concern for some of the people in those community. We recently heard some of those viewpoints. Here we hear from Natalynne DeLapp, a spokesperson for Terra-Gen, just before a deadline for comment to the county planning office arrives (June 14th, 5 PM).
