Land-Based Wind Energy Guidelines
Fish and Wildlife Service,
Interior.
ACTION: Notice of availability.
AGENCY:
We, the U.S. Fish and
Wildlife Service (Service), announce the
availability of the final voluntary LandBased Wind Energy Guidelines
(Guidelines). These Guidelines
supersede the Service’s 2003 voluntary
interim guidelines for land-based wind
energy development. They respond to
accelerated development of land-based
wind energy generation projects in the
United States. These voluntary
Guidelines provide developers and
agency staff with an iterative process to
make sound decisions in selecting sites
to avoid, minimize and compensate for
adverse effects to wildlife, particularly
birds and bats, and their habitats
resulting from construction, operation,
and maintenance of land-based wind
energy facilities.
DATES: These voluntary Guidelines are
effective March 26, 2012.
ADDRESSES: The Guidelines may be
downloaded from https://www.fws.gov/
SUMMARY:
windenergy. To request a copy of the
draft Guidelines by U.S. Mail, write:
U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, 4401
North Fairfax Drive; Room 840,
Arlington, VA 22203. You may also
send an email request to:
windenergy@fws.gov. Please specify
whether you want to receive a hard
copy by U.S. mail or an electronic copy
by email.

Habitat and Resource Conservation, U.S.

Individuals who are hearing-impaired or
speech-impaired may call the Federal
Relay Service at 1–800–877–8337 for
TTY assistance, 24 hours a day, 7 days

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
mission of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service is to work with others to
conserve, protect, and enhance fish,
wildlife, plants, and their habitats for
the continuing benefit of the American
people. As part of this mission, we
implement statutes including the
Endangered Species Act (ESA; 16 U.S.C.
1531 et seq.), the Migratory Bird Treaty
Act (MBTA; 16 U.S.C. 703–711), and the
Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act
(BGEPA; 16 U.S.C. 668–668d). These
statutes prohibit taking of federally
listed species, migratory birds, and
eagles unless otherwise authorized.
Increased energy demands and the
nationwide goal to increase energy
production from renewable sources
have intensified the development of
renewable energy facilities, including
wind energy. The Service supports
renewable energy development that is
compatible with wildlife conservation.
The voluntary Guidelines will
provide Service staff, developers,
landowners and other stakeholders with
a tool to assist in avoiding, minimizing,
and compensating for significant
adverse impacts to wildlife and their
habitats. Adherence to the Guidelines is
voluntary and does not relieve any
individual, company, or agency of the
responsibility to comply with laws and
regulations. However, if a violation of
law occurs, the Service will consider a
developer’s documented efforts to
communicate with the Service and
adhere to the Guidelines. The
Guidelines include a Communications
Protocol that provides guidance to both
developers and Service personnel
regarding expectations of appropriate
communication and documentation.
The Service anticipates that these
Guidelines, when used in concert with
appropriate regulatory tools and other
existing policies, provide the best
practical approach for wildlife
conservation.
Background
In July 2003, the Service released
voluntary interim guidelines for landbased wind energy projects to assist
developers in avoiding, minimizing,
and/or compensating for effects to
wildlife and their habitats related to
land-based wind energy facilities. In
2007, the Secretary of the Interior
(Secretary) established the Wind
Turbine Guidelines Advisory
Committee (Committee) under the
Federal Advisory Committee Act (5
U.S.C. App.). The Committee submitted
final recommendations to the Secretary
on March 4, 2010. The Service
appreciates all the time and effort that
members of the Committee devoted to
developing their recommendations, as
well as since that time, as the Service
developed these final Guidelines. The
Service used the recommendations as a
basis to develop the Service’s draft
Guidelines, which we circulated for
comment in February 2011 (76 FR 9590,
February 18, 2011).
We announced several opportunities
for the public to attend Committee
meetings and to submit comments or
otherwise participate in the
development of the Guidelines as
