Fowler Ridge wind farm ~ BP plans to position the blades of the wind turbines so they move slowly or stop at night during times with low wind.

Fowler Ridge Wind Farm officials say they are creating a plan to keep more bats from being injured.

Workers at the wind farm near Lafayette found a dead endangered Indiana bat near their turbines in 2009. The next year the wind farm’s operator BP Wind Energy hired a company to conduct additional studies and found a total of 809 dead bats, including another Indiana bat.
