As a condition of their lease for two sites off the Maryland Coast, purchased last year for $8.7 million, U.S. Wind reports it has submitted an application to tie in to Maryland’s power grid and will spend the next few weeks analyzing data for a report due in early November.
“The application and site assessment plans are conditions of the lease,” Paul Rich, director of project development for U.S. Wind, said. “We’re finalizing the site assessment plans and analyzing our work in the context of a number of other studies.”
The other studies include environmental data that has already been collected and the determination if the site is a viable area for wind power.
The plans must be submitted within one year of the lease, Rich said.

European countries have figured out this boondoggle and have stopped with the wind farm nonsense.
