Following presentations from Invenergy and attorney Alan Anderson, landowners addressed some of their concerns about potential wind energy projects at Monday’s special meeting of the Seward County Commission.
County resident Steve Merz said one of his concerns was the concrete blocks on which turbines are built affecting the percolation of rainwater farmers rely on for their crops.
“It’s going to create a dam, and that’s not going to be good for the land up above it,” he said. “That land will suffer.”
