This report summarizes the
decision-making framework surrounding alternative energy
resources, specifically wind, wave/tidal, and in-river
flow. To the extent possible, it also reflects current
management philosophies, written policies and procedures,
administrative rulemaking, and legislative action used
in making decisions for alternative energy projects. The
report is intended to be a factual study that state land
managers and policymakers can use in formulating programs,
regulations, and statutes to encourage the development
of and address emerging issues associated with alternative
energy projects on state land. Also, the information contained
in this report is dynamic – a snapshot in time – and is
intended for general information purposes.
