MD governor bans wind turbines on state forests

Thursday, April 17, 2008

Maryland Governor Martin O'Malley announced this week that he will not allow commercial wind turbines on state forest land. The ban applies only to conservation lands owned outright by the state and managed by the Department of Natural Resources and is not meant to discourage wind power development on other local, federal or privately owned land.
