With the erection of a second turbine atop Lowell Mountain, opponents of Green Mountain Power’s wind-energy project returned Monday to again block trucks from reaching the construction site.
The five-hour protest ended when police arrested six demonstrators and dispersed the remaining crowd. It was the second demonstration against the turbine project in a month that ended with arrests.
