OAKLAND, Md.
An Annapolis company has notified state regulators that it plans to begin producing electricity at a western Maryland wind farm.
Annapolis-based Synergics filed the notification with the Maryland Public Service Commission on Monday for the Roth Rock wind farm in Garrett County. Synergics said in the filing that operation is expected to begin in December at the wind farm atop Backbone Mountain near Oakland in Garrett County.
The company is required to give two weeks’ notice before electricity production begins at the site.
Homeowners who live near the site had complained to utility regulators, saying the impact on their safety had not been adequately considered.
