Final Acceptance Testing in Progress, March 7, 2009.

The wind turbine is undergoing a rigorous set of manufacturer tests. Today, you may see the turine spinning. This is part of a series of 10 minute runs where the turbine is run and then shutdown to take data and make adjustments. When the manufacturer determines that all data is acceptable, they will commence a minmimum 12-hour run where the turbine must operate without problems. After that, the wind turbine will be ready for Town documentation review, inspection and acceptance. We anticipate the 12-hour run to commence late today (Wed 18 Mar) or tomorrow.
