CONCORD, N.H. (AP) — A proposal for a 23-turbine wind farm in central New Hampshire is dead because of an unfavorable political and regulatory climate in the state, the project’s developer said Tuesday.

At the time, company spokesman Paul Copleman said the company remained committed to Wild Meadows.
