Group files appeal to nullify wind farm approval

  • WELLSBORO — The Tioga Preservation Group has filed an appeal in Tioga County Court to try to block plans to construct a wind farm with more than 120 turbines on Armenia Mountain starting in the spring.

    The appeal was filed by the group Jan. 17, asking that the judge “nullify” the preliminary conditional approval granted to AES Armenia Mountain Wind LLC, by the Tioga County Planning Commission Dec. 12, group member Frank Piccolella said.

State court to hear Greenbrier wind power case

  • State Supreme Court justices this morning will hear arguments over a proposal to build 124 giant wind-power turbines along 23 miles of Greenbrier County ridges.


    Local opponents of the Beech Ridge Energy LLC project are appealing the state Public Service Commission’s decision to approve the $300 million development.


    Mountain Communities for Responsible Energy argues that the PSC ignored its own permit regulations and did not obtain adequate information about the wind project’s potential impacts before approving it.

Defendants in Mt. Storm wind lawsuit specified

  • Charleston attorney and former Supreme Court justice Richard Neely, representing the plaintiffs in the case, argued to Judge Phil Jordan of the 21st Circuit that Shell should be included in the suit because he has been unable to get information from NedPower or Shell to pursue his case. He said that the suit was originally filed “before the first footer was laid” and NedPower was the entity listed as building the project.

    State Supreme Court Justice Donald Greenwood of Onondaga County ruled that the Warren Town Board failed to look closely enough at the project’s potential impact. The town was the lead agency for a state-required environmental review.

    The town’s process and decision to approve the review was “arbitrary, capricious and an abuse of discretion,” Greenwood’s decision states.
