The property in Unit 2 is characterized as unoccupied. However, it contains significant wind energy installations and potential solar energy instillations, which require periodic update and maintenance. That, in turn, could become impossible or too difficult to do if regulations regarding usage are not carefully drafted to allow normal commercial activities on such properties. For example, regulations which prohibited use of vehicles or the digging of foundations for new equipment could cause the property to cease to be economically viable. Restrictions that might be imposed under the proposed designation are impossible to predict and could cause the loss of significant alternate energy sources at time when Federal policy is to promote alternate energy. Thus the potential for disruption or normal commercial activity is far greater than the designation of "unoccupied land" would indicate. I would urge extreme caution in making areas that are critical to National energy and economic policy subject to unknown regulatory burdens not administered by the same agency as governs alternate energy. The potential for the law of unintended consequences to cause damage to a national resource is significant.
