Community Action for Responsible Environmental Stewardship
We are in a battle to save the Horse Heaven Hills from a huge wind turbine project.

We are fighting to protect and save the ferruginous hawk, wildlife habitat, migration corridors, cultural sites, and natural skylines.
The Horse Heaven Hills Wind project is huge - it stretches 26 miles west to east and eight miles north to south, from south of Benton City all the way to Finley.
The proposed 231 - 496 foot high turbines or 150 - 671 foot high turbines will cause significant environmental, health and safety issues along with significant adverse negative impacts on wildlife, cultural resources, recreation, agriculture, the wineries, tourism, real estate values and the local economy.
Tri-Cities C.A.R.E.S. is dedicated to educating the public and working with local governments and organizations to protect the interests of the citizens who will be impacted by this project.
