A bill for an act establishing standards for obstruction lights on wind energy conversion facilities and providing penalties.

Summary

The bill mandates that all wind energy facilities with a capacity over 100 kW install obstruction lights controlled by an aircraft detection lighting system (ADLS) and requires older facilities to retrofit by Jan 1 2028 unless terrain or air‑space conditions make it impractical. Facility owners must keep the system operating and face civil penalties of $100‑$2,500 per day for each violation. The goal is to improve aviation safety around tall wind structures.
