Will a fire on Ice Mountain be good for the watershed? Is there any way that future mayor (I hope) Bill Fink can overturn the Gamesa decision?

sandstone and icemen then tell how they could cut tree out befor the set back meeting . Because cutting trees is not prohibited by the ordinance. Gamesa put in test towers in '06 and widened existing roads and put in new roads in '06 and '07. So they've been working on this project for 3 years. The...

Hi folks, The G87 turbine that's burning in eastern PA is made by Gamesa and is often used in Iberdrola projects.

Hi folks, SOAR members just sent in a report on Logan Twp Supervisor's mtg. held in Altoona, PA (Blair County). Gamesa is now asking for taller turbines. Note the cost of these taller turbines. Sounds like the G87 model with the 100 meter tower. And to think Gamesa said the project would be dead if ...
