Expansion of UPC wind farm is topic of public hearing

A public hearing will be held this week on the proposed expansion of the Steel Winds wind farm in the City of Lackawanna. The hearing, before the Planning and Development Board, is scheduled for 5:15 p.m. Wednesday in the Lackawanna Senior Center, 230 Martin Road.

BQ Energy, (UPC part of project) which operates the eight wind turbines at the former Bethlehem Steel site along Lake Erie, seeks to erect additional turbines but needs a zoning variance.
