Google wind map


The reason for placing the wind farm off the coast of Isle Royale was due to its remote location in Lake Superior, so noise will not be a significant factor. Secondly, its surrounding area possesses a high level of wind.
As the wind farm will be waterbased injury to birds should not be a factor; since birds are not known to fly long distances over water.
Lastly, though the wind farm will be waterbased it is strategically placed outside of shipping lanes.
