ABB Party a Success

Reagan Smith Energy Solutions would like to thank Tom Royer, OSU Extension Entomologist, for his presentation on the American Burying Beetle. We would also like to thank everyone who stopped by and made our ABB party a huge success!

The American Burying Beetle is listed as a Federal endangered species. Operators developers of areas where the ABB is historically found, likely to be present, documented or unconfirmed are required to perform absence/presence surveys or bait aways on projects with a federal nexus. While most operators and developers of these areas are familiar with the ABB, they have never actually seen one.

The American Burying Beetle is active from late May to mid-September. Reagan Smith Energy Solutions, Inc. is permitted through the US Fish and Wildlife Service to perform American Burying Beetle surveys. If you have questions or to schedule a survey, please contact Monica Smith Griffin at msmith@rsenergysolutions.com.

 Wind Energy on the Turkish Island of Bozcaada

   During a 10-day trip to Turkey in May, this correspondent had the pleasure of visiting one of the most beautiful spots in that part of the world- the island of Bozcaada, in the Aegean Sea, just south of the strategically-located Dardanelles straits. Here is an island, also known as Tenedos in Greek, featuring a single, bustling village and some wonderful vineyards that are scattered across the rolling landscape.

    Beyond the beautiful landscapes, the picturesque vineyards and the quaintness of the town and accompanying harbor, there is a manmade feature to Bozcaada that captured the attention of this Okie. It was the wind farm located on a cape at the far western end of the island. Yes, in Turkey, alternative energy appears to be on the grow and wind power is doing wonders for windy locales such as Bozcaada. The 17 wind turbines powering the island were erected in 2000 and is called the Bozcaada Energy Station.
