Bingham Project -♦- And Then they Turn....
Commissioning of the Bingham Project ?
First they tested the Warning lights, a few, then possibly nearly all, the week of September 19th - 24th. As far away as Unity Maine these can bee seen in the night sky. Then on the 25th (maybe before) they unleashed the blades, to start the Killing of Maine and its Birds & Bats. (maybe a corporate plane someday)

I noticed they have not posted any videos of their meetings in Clifton for the past two years https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCW9Mg-f8QpDc52_GTVve4fQ

@Paula D Kelso: Yes those roadways did look terribly narrow for the load. Must be a bottom line expense cut, in lieu of safety concerns.

Thank you Eric for all your video's.
You are invaluable in keeping us all in the loop.
Hope folks check out the BDN articles posted and see the turbine section in the ditch. Have been trying to find my copy of the Pisgah application and the specified width of that roadway. I'm pretty sure it was to be wider than that shows. I remember bringing up questions to Fuller about that. My concern was proper access for emergency response vehicles and the ability to pass on the access road. (I was on the Planning Board then. Voted no on fiscal capacity then left the Board before the final vote. The only no vote on anything for the project.)
For anyone curious, the Clifton land use ordinance is on this site:

Article 14 has the wind energy facility specific reg's. Article 6 has site plan review. Article 5 has permitting. The project still will need to apply for and obtain an operational permit. Like this town's officials are going to tell a $25 million project, sorry you can't operate? Just for giggles look at the complaint procedure in Article 14 for wind facilities. The burden is definitely on the complainant.

Maine Center For Public Interest Reporting – Three Part Series: A CRITICAL LOOK AT MAINE’S WIND ACT
******** IF LINKS BELOW DON'T WORK, GOOGLE THEM*********
(excerpts) From Part 1 – On Maine’s Wind Law “Once the committee passed the wind energy bill on to the full House and Senate, lawmakers there didn’t even debate it. They passed it unanimously and with no discussion. House Majority Leader Hannah Pingree, a Democrat from North Haven, says legislators probably didn’t know how many turbines would be constructed in Maine if the law’s goals were met." . – Maine Center for Public Interest Reporting, August 2010 https://www.pinetreewatchdog.org/wind-power-bandwagon-hits-bumps-in-the-road-3/From Part 2 – On Wind and Oil Yet using wind energy doesn’t lower dependence on imported foreign oil. That’s because the majority of imported oil in Maine is used for heating and transportation. And switching our dependence from foreign oil to Maine-produced electricity isn’t likely to happen very soon, says Bartlett. “Right now, people can’t switch to electric cars and heating – if they did, we’d be in trouble.” So was one of the fundamental premises of the task force false, or at least misleading?" https://www.pinetreewatchdog.org/wind-swept-task-force-set-the-rules/From Part 3 – On Wind-Required New Transmission Lines Finally, the building of enormous, high-voltage transmission lines that the regional electricity system operator says are required to move substantial amounts of wind power to markets south of Maine was never even discussed by the task force – an omission that Mills said will come to haunt the state.“If you try to put 2,500 or 3,000 megawatts in northern or eastern Maine – oh, my god, try to build the transmission!” said Mills. “It’s not just the towers, it’s the lines – that’s when I begin to think that the goal is a little farfetched.” https://www.pinetreewatchdog.org/flaws-in-bill-like-skating-with-dull-skates/
