IT WAS REPORTED AT THE FEBRUARY 19 Hawley Selectboard meeting that Berkshire East is intending to replace one of the blades on its large wind turbine. Originally scheduled for late March, supplier delays have caused this project to be put off until mid-to-late April, according to Hawley Highway Superintendent Gary Mitchell.
The plan is to bring the new blade in through Pond Road, then Forget Road, and then to proceed along East Road and up to the windmill site.
Gary is working with Berkshire East to bolster the condition of the roads to the turbine site and minimize any damage.
