Reno-based Ormat Technologies Inc. wants to erect a renewable energy plant less than a mile outside Gerlach. Some residents are pushing back.
This is the Burning Man “space.” Those are cars and trucks. A lot of people get there by aircraft, some by aircraft from far away places to SF or Las Vegas and then by carbon fuel powered transportation to Burning Man. And the organizers or Burning Man are objecting to a geothermal plant because of its impact on the environment? Kind of confused about that, but confirming what I always thought Burning Man is: a refuge for a lot of carbon consuming wealth to pretend they are something else.
Excerpt from this story from the Reno Gazette Journal:
A proposed geothermal project outside the town of Gerlach is getting pushback from some locals nearby and Burners from afar.
Reno-based Ormat Technologies Inc. wants to erect a renewable energy plant less than a mile outside Gerlach. The Bureau of Land Management's deadline for comment on the project is today, Jan. 10.
Critics are concerned about the plant threatening the area's famously dark skies and peace of the town about two hours north of Reno.
"A geothermal facility so close to Gerlach and the (Black Rock Desert-High Rock Canyon Emigrant Trails National Conservation Area) would forever alter the environment, viewshed and quality of life in the area," the Burning Man Project said in a prepared statement on Friday.
Burning Man Project owns nearly 70 parcel in the Gerlach area, including the Fly Ranch hot springs, which it is hoping to develop into an arts enclave.
Although Burning Man Project has been touting its efforts to become a more sustainable organization, it is opposed to the geothermal plant and has been rallying Burners to submit comments against it.
"Small towns like Gerlach are disappearing all over the country, and in order to retain this spirit, measures must be taken to ensure folks in these areas can continue to live harmoniously in their chosen environment," the statement said.
Gerlach, a town of about 100, is the last stop before the Black Rock Desert, where 80,000 people assemble for Burning Man each year.
