WindAction | Wind energy is killing golden eagles in central Nevada – more projects planned
Nevada’s first wind energy project, Spring Valley Wind, was built on Bureau of Land Management (BLM) lands adjacent to Great Basin National Park in a sensitive location for wildlife. Eight golden eagles are known to have been killed at the project, along with many other species of birds since its approval in 2011. Recently obtained Freedom of Information Act documents show the last 6 eagle kills, which have all gone undetected by the news media and environmental organizations. These 6 eagle deaths, were not publicly disclosed by the Interior Department.
