collison.blaine@epa.gov / 202-343-9139
Project Name: Future Generation Wind
Developer Name: Future Generation Wind, LLC.
Renewable Energy Type: Wind
Total Planned Megawatt (MW) Size: 8MW	Phase I:	Phase II:
Project Location: Plymouth, MA
Is the project permitted?: Yes
If not, what is the permit status?: N One appeal on a special permit for one of four turbines pending,
getting close to settlement. The permitting story is very good for this project.
What is the status of the project's site?: The project is sited on a Mann Farms, Orcranics, Inc., is a
grower/owner of Ocean Spray, Inc. The owner of the site is has stake in the project development
company. The project has the potential to be a real strong public relations target for a commercial
offtaker. These parties are part of the project team -
Clear Planet Energy - San Francisco, CA - Development lead, over 900 MW spinning and several GW of
development lead or managed
SourceOne, Inc. - Boston, MA - Interconnection, power marketing, financial modeling, and project
management support
Altantic Design Engineers, Inc. - Sandwich, MA - Engineering design, layouts, and permitting
V-Bar, LLC-Salt Lake City, UT-Wind analysis
Klavens Law Group - Boston, MA - Project counsel
Have land leases been filed with the county?: Private land ownership - No. The sponsor is the owner
of the land, but there are land leases which will be formalized prior to operation.

-------
What is the status of interconnection, and have system impact and facility studies been completed?
(Distribution or transmission level projects are both eligible):
NE-ISO SIS complete, no issues. Interconnect at distribution voltage into NSTAR Valley Substation,
115k.V See more details below.
Does the transmission owner (TO) or independent system operator (ISO) have a process to study the
project's impact on the local or regional grid and the subsequent cost to interconnect?:
NE-ISO System Impact Study complete, no impacts. Local distribution System Impact Study is done with
NSTAR, we should have it delivered to us next week. Yes we have a electrical and interconnection
budget. The goal is to get an Interconnection Study Agreement (including costs and timeline) done in
July with NSTAR.
What is the status of the Environmental Impact Statement?:
All permitting including environmental is complete. There was no EIS as no federal nexus. State
permitting is all complete and clear.
Is any element of the project - technology or other - experimental or pilot-phase?: No
What is the long- and short-term operations program of the project? Does the renewable energy
technology manufacturer have a technical support team locally available?:
5 year min O&M from the manufacturer, with availability guarantees, extendable up to 10 years or
longer. Yes.
For wind projects, has a meteorological tower been installed? If yes, when was the tower installed
and how much data has been collected?:
Yes, 1.5 years ago. Average wind speeds average 6.8 m/s at 100m, predominately out of SW
Who has analyzed the data and what is that person's experience with respect to projects that have
