3:00 p.m. ET (1:00 MT) Add to my calendar Siting issues are a complex and challenging aspect of turbine installations for developers. The National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) is finishing research on national siting considerations this spring, and other agencies and organizations have created tools designed to help support wind siting decisions. Join Moderator Patrick Gilman of the U.S. Department of Energy for an exploration of this topic.

• Suzanne Tegen of NREL will present an introduction to her work on national siting considerations and siting tools to provide the context for this discussion.
• Taber Allison from the American Wind and Wildlife Institute (AWWI) will discuss wildlife considerations relative to wind energy development and the AWWI's Landscape Assessment Tool.
• Brian Woodbridge from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service will speak about the agency's decision-support tools that are integrated into a series of landscape-scale conservation strategies for golden eagles, covering the western United States.
