This project is for the commissioning of a meteorological (met) tower to be installed at the adjacent to the Alexandria Bay Land Port of Entry (LPOE). located in the Village of Alexandria Bay, Wellesley Island, Jefferson County. State of New York. The subject site is owned by the Thousand Island Bridge Authority and has granted the General Services Administration (GSA) a Right of Entry agreement to install the tower with the GSA's intention of purchasing the property in the near future. A National Renewable Energy Laboratory contractor would install a 50-meter met tower at the Alexandria Bay LPOE for 12 months. Data collected from the met tower anemometers, vanes and temperature sensors would be used to provide a feasibility study for wind potential at the site.
