Wareham Planning Board approves farm-friendly solar-array on Wareham-Carver line Wicked Local WAREHAM – The Planning Board Monday approved its site plan review of a “dual-use” plan to blend a 7.3-megawatt solar-array field with active cranberry bogs on land straddling the Wareham-Carver border off North Carver Road. Brett Meredith owns and continues to farm the land. The site that will be impacted is already cleared of trees so deforestation will not be necessary, according to proponents. Meredith said the arrangement’s added revenue will allow him to continue farming. The state’s Solar Massachusetts Renewable Target or SMART Program provides financial incentives for solar-array systems designed to allow a farm to continue working. The overall site is 110 acres, with 77 in Wareham and 33 in Carver.
