Non-Hunting Recreation Access Permit

Terms and Conditions

I have received a copy of the WILD HORSE WIND FACILITY NON-HUNTING RECREATION ACCESS RULES ("Wild Horse Wind Facility Rules") governing non-hunting recreation access to the Wild Horse Wind Facility property and agree to abide by them. I understand that if I fail to abide by these rules, my recreation access privileges may be immediately terminated and I may be subject to further liability or prosecution. The term of this permit is eight (8) months, April 1 through November 30, 2019. If my name or address changes during the effective period of this agreement, I am required to re- register and sign a new Non-Hunting Recreation Access Permit to provide current information prior to entering the Wind Facility Property, other than for "through" access.

I understand that PSE, DNR, and WDFW assume no liability for my safety and personal property while I am on Wind Facility Property. I release and agree to hold PSE, DNR, and WDFW harmless in the event of bodily injury, death, personal property damage, theft, or other accident or mishap that may occur while I am on Wind Facility Property.

I understand that even if I am granted access to Wind Facility Property, if I trespass on any portion of Wind Facility Property specifically posted as closed or marked with a "No Access" sign, or, violate any of the Wild Horse Wind Facility Rules, then I may face revocation of my access privileges and possible enforcement action.

I understand that there is a wind power generating facility operated by PSE on the Wind Facility Property and that I will be responsible for any damage that I cause to the wind facilities (whether or not such damage is intentional), including, but not limited to wind turbines, solar facilities, overhead power lines, splice boxes, j-boxes, maintenance vehicles, signs, maintenance facilities or substation, or injuries, death or damage to any persons thereon.
