A HOUSE RESOLUTION urging the legislative council

of wind farms are required;

SECTION 1. That the legislative council is urged to assign the topic of wind farms to an interim study committee.
SECTION 2. That the committee, if established, shall study the role of the state of Indiana in the establishment and regulation of wind farms and the effect these wind farms could have on the surrounding communities.
