We haven’t had any shipments of wind turbine blades in the port for more than a year, but we have had some stored on the ground from past deliveries over at Lake Superior Warehousing Company at the Port Terminal. Today (Thursday, September 8, 2011), the last of those were loaded onto trucks.They will take them to wind farms in Illinois. During the time they have been stored here, they have actually been sold to new customers, rather than the customers who originally ordered them. Delays, construction issues and the poor economy have kept the wind turbine business in flux.  (Click pic for larger version)
