NextEra Energy Resources has a voluntary whooping crane protection plan for all operating wind farms within the whooping crane migration corridor. All wind technicians receive annual training on whooping crane identification, curtailment procedures and notification requirements. If a whooping crane is observed on the ground or flying overhead, the turbines are immediately shut down and remain down until the whooping cranes have left the area.
