Proceedings of National Avian-Wind Power Planning Meeting II, 20-22 September 1995, Palm Springs, California

National Avian-Wind Power Planning Meeting II was organized by the Avian Subcommittee of the National Wind Coordinating Committee. Government regulators, scientists and other stakeholders met in Palm Springs, California, on 20-22 September 1995 to share ideas about research that could be helpful in predicting and reducing bird mortality from wind turbines. This meeting was the second in a series.The purposes of this meeting were to: 1) provide information on avian/wind power interactions that will help meet the needs of regulators, researchers, and other stakeholders concerned with responsible development and permitting of wind plants; 2) create dialog among regulators, researchers and other stakeholders to help all parties understand the role that research can play in responsibledevelopment and permitting of wind plants, and allow researchers to understand the relevance of their research to the process; and 3) propose research projects and the appropriate sponsorship.
