The company, ESI Energy LLC, built facilities in high-risk locations, failed to obtain permits, and its wind turbines killed approximately 150 eagles. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) told ESI that there were an “unusually high number of occupied golden eagle nests” and that the facility should not be built at the proposed location.
