Way to go PWD‼️
PWD’s landmark 237-ft wind turbine is officially being decommissioned. 🌬️
Crews began removing the three 85-ft blades today, with the tower set to come down next week.
After two decades on the Palmdale skyline and years of supporting the Leslie O. Carter Water Treatment Plant with renewable power, the turbine has reached the end of its lifespan.
PWD is now shifting toward two new solar projects planned to power both our treatment plant and main office. 🌞

La emblemática turbina eólica de 237 pies de PWD está siendo oficialmente desmantelada. 🌬️
Los equipos han comenzado hoy a retirar las tres palas de 85 pies, y la torre se desmontará la próxima semana.
Después de dos décadas en el horizonte de Palmdale y años de apoyo a la planta de tratamiento de agua Leslie O. Carter con energía renovable, la turbina ha llegado al final de su vida útil.
PWD ahora está cambiando hacia dos nuevos proyectos solares previstos para alimentar tanto nuestra planta de tratamiento y la oficina principal. 🌞
