Tim, thanks for taking the lead in posting this- I have been remiss in my duties.

ALCON- There are a few things to keep in mind if attending this meeting:

1- PSE, who runs the wind farm, requires your signature on a release form prior to the meeting and included tour. While I'm sure these will be available at the site, I have and can email copies for you to peruse prior to the event. PM me for further info.

2- Please also keep in mind this is a private entity's facility, and, as such, they have rules that need to be followed. Listed in the quote below are these rules. They're common sense-based, IMHO.

PSE wrote:
-Liability forms must be signed prior to participating in the tour.
-Wear closed-toed sturdy shoes and long pants.
-Jackets or coats are recommended. The temperature and wind make the site much cooler than may be expected.
-Hard hats are required and will be provided for site visitors.
-A site safety review will be provided by Puget Sound Energy prior to the tour.
-Visitors with pacemakers are prohibited from entering turbine towers because magnets are present.
-Cameras are encouraged.
-If the weather is extremely wet or icy the site tour will be rescheduled; however, a “Picture Tour” in a slideshow format will be offered as an alternative to the “Site Tour.”
-If you are driving your own vehicle in the project area with a Puget Sound Energy escort, please note that the access road speed limit is 20 mph.

Can I get a tentative interest check/headcount? I need to reconfirm with PSE, as I'm the POC for this.

Last chance to indicate your interest in attending; I need to re-confirm with PSE. If the group size doesn't grow, I think this will be cancelled.
