Orr & Reno, P.A.

Orr & Reno client receives approval to construct and operate the first commercial-scale wind farm in NH
Orr & Reno client Iberdrola Renewable Energies USA recently received approval from the New Hampshire Site Evaluation Committee to construct and operate the first commercial-scale wind farm in New Hampshire. Attorney Susan Geiger headed a team that represented Iberdrola, the world’s largest owner and operator of wind power facilities, in its successful effort to become the first wind-powered commercial generator of electricity in New Hampshire. Construction on the 24 megawatt project is likely to begin this fall in the town of Lempster, located in Sullivan County about 10 miles south of Newport and 20 miles north of Keene, and to be completed in the summer or fall of 2008. The new wind farm will produce more than 75 million kilowatt hours of clean, renewable electricity each year, enough to provide power for roughly 10,500 homes. No appeals of the 14 member Site Evaluation Committee’s order are likely as the only motion for rehearing, a necessary prerequisite for any appeal to the New Hampshire Supreme Court, was later withdrawn. Susan Geiger is a former New Hampshire Public Utilities Commissioner, member of the Site Evaluation Committee, and Chief of Staff with the NH Attorney General’s Office. She has an administrative law and regulatory practice at Orr & Reno where she represents clients in the energy and telecommunications areas.

Merchant & Gould supports Tee It Up For The Troops
Merchant & Gould would like to extend our wishes and prayers to the men & women who serve our country and their families. Merchant & Gould strongly upholds the value of supporting the communities that we serve and the country for which we are so lucky to live in.

Merchant & Gould client TEE IT UP FOR THE TROOPS is a non-profit organization established by the family and friends of a soldier serving in the U.S. Army. When the father asked what the son needed he responded by asking his father to do something for the soldiers and families of the fallen and disabled back home. TEE IT UP FOR THE TROOPS, INC, was created to help honor that request, and to honor and recognize the needs of all veterans who have served this nation. The goal is to make the Friday closest to September 11th each year a NATIONAL DAY OF GOLF saluting all those who have answered the call of duty. It also serves as a day to acknowledge and honor the sacrifice of the military veterans and their families.

Merchant & Gould attorney, Kristine Boylan leads the TEE IT UP FOR THE TROOPS pro bono team here at Merchant & Gould. She represented the firm Friday Sept.7th at the national day of golf at The Mendakota Country Club event in support of the United States troops. The event raised nearly 1 million dollars.
