You know the lawyers negotiated this because they'll have to go back to court to decide what the damages are. And re: wind I found this link. http://www.wind-watch.org/faq-size.php. A basic turbine hub is 56 tons. If that is transported in one piece it is almost twice a truck of pipe. I really hope a wind tower is transported in separate pieces. The blades are lighter than the hub, and the load is more spread out.
