A central Illinois lawmaker is focused on adjusting some of the State of Illinois' renewable energy laws.
State Senator Sally Turner indicates the wind ordinances at the State level need to do something about the red flashing lights above those turbines.
According to Turner, she recently toured the National Weather Service office in Lincoln and found the wind turbines can have an impact on the radar of that office - something she hopes to see adjusted in the State law.
While Illinois Republicans were disappointed when the State superseded local ordinances in all of Illinois with its own regulation, the Lincoln Republican points out they would like to repeal the law altogether. Since that is likely not an option, they hope to make the existing law better.
Last month, Sen. Turner was assigned to the Senate Agriculture Committee and two appropriation committees.
