§ 57.12. Policy on wind power projects.
It is the policy of the Commission to have its staff fully coordinate agency concerns in the review of wind power development projects with all involved local, State and Federal regulatory agencies to avoid, minimize and mitigate harmful impacts to fish, other aquatic life, reptiles, amphibians and their habitats. Commission staff will seek the collection of adequate data for risk analysis when necessary in the environmental review process, the avoidance of threatened and endangered species and their habitats, the avoidance of ecologically sensitive areas when siting projects, the reduction of habitat fragmentation, and the development of mitigation strategies for unavoidable impacts.
