Most of the maps below have been recently developed.
They represent an initial step in what we hope will be a large
series of maps or overlays indicating the location of known
biological resources. We hope they will be useful in helping
to avoid important biological resource areas when selecting
potential sites for wind power projects. At this stage, we cannot
say with certainty that biological resources may not be located
at unmarked areas on maps, but we can at least indicate where
known resources exist and where adverse impacts are likely.
If you find the concept of these maps to be useful, please contact
us.
