Wind Turbine Hearing Called Off Due to Storm
No alternative date has been set for the state's public hearing on best practices for wind turbine siting, originally scheduled for Wednesday in Hyannis.
The Massachusetts Department of Public Utilities has canceled Wednesday’s planned hearing on the Cape regarding Best Practices for the Siting of Land-Based Wind Energy Facilities.
"MA DPU spokesman, Ann McMahon, informed local citizens of the Cape and Southeastern Massachusetts this morning. She did not know whether or not another hearing would be rescheduled," said Falmouth turbine foe Malcolm Donald in an email to Patch.
The hearing had been scheduled for 4 p.m. to 8 p.m. at Barnstable High School.
