Beech Ridge Wind Farm
Gray & Pape undertook a reconnaissance-level, historical architectural survey for the proposed expansion/modification of the Beech Ridge Wind Energy Facility. A historical architectural survey was conducted as part of the review process for the project. Over 200 historic-period resources were identified and evaluated for National Register of Historic Places eligibility, a determination of effects was completed for eligible properties, and mitigation for adverse effects was conducted. A unique feature of this project was the acoustic analysis conducted to ascertain if the undertaking would have audible effects on historic properties within the Area of Potential Effects. In the end, it was determined that no eligible resources would experience audible effects from the undertaking.
