If you are serious about stopping "wind farms" and their high cost, low value electricity, I'd suggest that you contact your Congressman and Senators as soon as and as often as possible to OPPOSE this legislation -- and get your friends and neighbors to do the same. Multiple contacts (phone, fax & email) are useful. The sooner the better to head off cosponsors. Focus your efforts on fighting the bill just introduced in the House by Blumenauer and Reichert.
4-year PTC-extension bill is filed in the House
Reps. Earl Blumenauer, D-Ore., and Dave Reichert, R-Wash., introduced a bill that would extend the renewable-energy Production Tax Credit through 2016. Reichert said that extending the PTC would encourage more private investment, create manufacturing jobs and lower electricity rates.
"Extending the PTC will keep growing U.S. wind-energy manufacturing jobs, rather than losing them to other countries," said AWEA CEO Denise Bode. SustainableBusinessOregon.com (11/2), North American Windpower online (11/3)
