SouthCoast Wind’s (formerly Mayflower Wind) effect on Radar

Excerpt from page 12, “The EWR screening analysis results show that wind turbines in the northern corner of the study area will be within line-of-sight of the Cape Cod AFS EWR at a blade-tip height of 808 feet AGL. At a blade-tip height of 1,067 feet AGL, wind turbines in the northern one-half of the study area will be within line-of-sight of this radar site. See Figure 5.

Research conducted by Westslope suggests that wind turbines in the study area within line-of-sight of the Cape Cod AFS EWR could have a significant impact on this early warning radar. [1] In May 2020, Mayflower Wind submitted a Project Notification Form (PNF) to the DoD Siting Clearinghouse for early consultation.”
