CHEVELON BUTTE WIND FARM PROJECT BENEFITS

The Chevelon Butte Wind Farm would bring many local community and state benefits, including:
- 200+ construction jobs and 10-15 full-time local positions during the 25+ year operating life
- Property taxes and other local economic benefits for Coconino and Navajo Counties
- Lease payments to the Arizona State Land Department, which fund Arizona public schools, universities, and other in-state beneficiaries
- Lease payments to rural ranching families
- The Project is being designed to avoid impacts to sensitive environmental and cultural resources and sited to minimize impacts to residential areas
- When complete, the Project will generate electricity equivalent to powering over 150,000 homes annually, with no operational air emissions or water use
- The property will remain a cattle ranch and the installation of wind facilities will not preclude or dramatically change existing land uses
