Hi to All - From a Northern Californian who loves Northern Nevada - A BLM project to construct 500' tall wind turbines on public land in Spring Valley outside Great Basin NP is likely to destroy the incredible night sky experience near the park in Eastern Nevada. Picture an industrial landscape with hundreds of turbines with blinking lights, trucks and fences. This park recently hosted a night sky festival which brought in thousands of tourists. I support development of renewable energy, but not in this valley! How about on fallow farm land or used defense sites?
If interested you can contact Great Basin NP staff.
That said, who wants to go camping?
