Note
One spelling does double duty. Site simply adds -d, so the same form serves the plain past (planners sited the turbines) and the participle after be or have. The verb sits beside the noun for a place chosen for permanent use, and it keeps to buildings and construction projects. Its most natural home is the passive followed by a phrase of place: was sited on, near, or along something.
