There’s another hurdle for the Great Bay Wind Energy project in Somerset County.
The wind turbine effort still has to get approval from the County Commissioners before it gets underway.
In the last legislative session Governor Martin O’Malley vetoed a measure that would have delayed the project for over a year.
After meeting with the county commissioner last Tuesday Commissioner Charles Fisher told WBOC that the board needed more time to come up with an ordinance.
He said the concern was over the possibility of higher turbines which would be at least 500-feet.
The type of turbine for the project has not yet been selected.
