Figure 26: Blue Lagoon, Iceland, Draws Tourists to its Geothermal Hot Springs Most geothermal power plants do not negatively affect tourism, and may even positively affect this area. Take the example of the power plant at Mammoth Lakes, California, located near an area known for skiing and mountain climbing. Although people initially opposed the project due to worries over tourism impact, the project is now highly regarded among community members and visitors alike. Many people in the town do not even know the power plant exists because it was so expertly engineered to blend into the surrounding environment.(10) 7.4. What types of communities benefit most from geothermal development? [0]Most producible geothermal resources are located in rural areas, which tend to suffer from economic depression and high unemployment, and often contain large minority populations. Geothermal development brings jobs to these communities. For an example, a new plant ready to be built in Californiaís Imperial Valley will bring a significant number of jobs to the Latino community there. According to the Environmental Impact Statement for the Truckhaven Geothermal Leasing Area, Imperial County, California, 19.8% of residents in Imperial County lived below the poverty level in 2003, and the population was 72.3% Hispanic, 20.2% White, 3.8% African American, 1.9% Asian-Pacific, and 1.3% American Indian.(11) Besides providing a variety of jobs to individuals in these rural areas, geothermal developers are often the largest taxpayers in the communities in which they produce geothermal energy. The taxes generated by geothermal use can benefit local communities in the U.S., in addition, no money or jobs are shipped overseas. 38
