... Presently, the FAA's Aircraft Flight Standards group is working with the DOE, the DOE's Sandia National Laboratories, the Solar Energy Industries Association, and solar company representatives to discuss issues of potential impacts associated with concentrated solar power facilities. The FAA is also preparing an internal report on the potential impacts of thermal plumes from air-cooled condensers associated with steam turbine generation.
