execute a waiver and the waiver has been obtained pursuant to the procedure
specified by the OPSB. Senator Bill Seitz, Chair of the Ohio Senate Public
Utilities Committee, has previously filed comments with the OPSB which indicate
that a waiver is not valid unless all property owners within and adjacent to the
wind farm property properly execute a waiver. GNUs comments also point out
that the OPSBs proposed rules do not identify the procedure by which a waiver
must be secured.
These waiver-related defects in the proposed rules are of particular concern to
GNU since 62% of the wind turbines that a wind farm developer wants to place
near Greenwich, Ohio violate the minimum setback requirement and many of the
adjacent property owners are opposed to the wind farm.
Comments regarding the OPSBs proposed rules can be viewed through the
OPSBs website, http://www.opsb.ohio.gov .
To learn more about GNU, the work that it is doing to protect the rights of local
property owners and the status of the OPSBs proceeding regarding the
Greenwich Wind Park, an event is scheduled on February 22 from 5:00 pm to
7:00 pm at South-Central (K-8) School.
