Proposed

Senate Bill 439 proposes to change the tax status of wind power projects in West Virginia, treating them as real property and eliminating their current classification as pollution control facilities. This change is part of a broader debate on the state's energy policy, balancing the interests of the coal industry against the potential for economic development through wind energy.
