	Wind Energy Project - Department of Energy
	We have just received good news that the Department of Energy has awarded us a grant to study our wind resource on the Meskwaki Settlement. The amount approved will fund complete studies of all aspects:
		1). Technicial characteristics of the wind, by installing a meteorological tower
		2). Environmental aspects, to protect any plants, animals, birds, etc
		3). Cultural and archaeological concerns;
		4). Geological aspects, as regards suitability for building the future wind turbine tower
		5). Educational benefits - how we can use our project to benefit our school programs
	This is a complex project, but with the accumulated knowledge and experience available here, we can put it together. The end result will be everything we need to completely qualify for building our first wind turbine to bring clean, renewable, affordable electric power to the Meskwaki Settlement.
