The Latest on the Wind Farm Controversy from the UCBJ

What started out as an announcement that seemed to be great economic development news for Cumberland County has started to sound more like a political hot potato.

My latest article for the Upper Cumberland Business Journal is at the link just below.

Wind Farm Stirring Controversy in Cumberland County

  1. Thanks for the article! I am in the 'oppose' camp and simply do not think enough has been expected from Apex in properly justifying the siting of this project. The community has not been adequately involved and the company is being allowed to make misleading statements. For example, the one in the last paragraph. The energy is not being proposed to be used in TN at all. Apex will not or cannot reveal a buyer for the proposed energy project. TVA is a commonly speculated buyer. They already have sufficient conventional and alternative energy sources without this project. Thanks for doing your part to publicize the project. It will impact many in the community and I don't think most really know that.
