Background
On March 13, 2007, the Department of

Natural Resources, U.S. House of
Representatives; and the Library of
Congress. The Secretary appointed 22
individuals to the Committee on
October 24, 2007, representing the
varied interests associated with wind
energy development and its potential
impacts to wildlife species and their
habitats. The Service held five
Committee meetings in 2008, and has
held one meeting in January of 2009. All
Committee meetings are open to the
public. The public has an opportunity to
comment at all Committee meetings.
