CHAUMONT — Lyme town officials have agreed tentatively on setbacks and new noise limits for private wind turbines.

Lyme’s Planning Board, which was given the task to draft laws for residential wind, solar and biomass energy development, originally considered a property line setback of 25 times the height of a turbine.

Hudson Energy filed a public involvement document with the Public Service Commission (PSC) on 6/16/15.

The approval process is now under Article 10 of the Public Service Law. The case number is 15-F-0327 and the matter # is 15-01278.

The attorney handling the case is Andrea Cerbin.

Her phone number is (518) 408-1441.

The link to the PSC site is below. On that site you will find Hudson Energy's preliminary Public Involvement Program (PIP) and the PSC response (they found it inadequate on several issues). In it you will see that the proposed transmission lines go south to Oswego.
