Wind energy facilities; prohibiting construction of wind energy facilities within certain distance of adjacent properties; effective date.

HB 1156 restricts where wind energy facilities can be built by requiring them to be at least 1.5 miles from airports, public schools, hospitals, and 0.5 miles from neighboring property lines. It also mandates that wind projects near military installations must obtain FAA and Department of Defense clearance to avoid interfering with military operations, with proof submitted to the Corporation Commission. Developers face daily fines up to $1,500 for non-compliance, and disputes over setbacks fall under district court jurisdiction. The law takes effect November 1, 2025, directly affecting wind energy developers and landowners near proposed sites.
