Snohomish Public Utility District (SnoPUD) is proposing to use Congressionally Directed Federal funding through Department of Energy to develop and verify monitoring capabilities which would be implemented as post-installation environmental monitoring for their proposed Puget Sound Pilot Tidal Energy Project in the State of Washington The primary focus for the project would be the development of near-field monitoring capabilities to observe interactions in the immediate vicinity of turbine rotors, in order to address concerns about the risk of post-installation blade strike.
