As predicted, the first major renewable (wind) energy approval
has been appealed to the Environmental Review Tribunal. Notice of
the appeal was posted on the EBR Registry. I was glad
to see, though, that this applicant doesn't allege human health
impacts. Because of the relatively narrow grounds of the appeal, it
seems quite possible that it can be settled without a full scale
hearing.
Application for Appeal Initiated by:
Bill Wachsmuth
Decision under Appeal:
A Renewable Energy Approval issued to Kent Breeze Wind Farms,
located in the Municipality of Chatham-Kent, for a Class 4 Wind
facility consisting of eight wind turbine generators, each rated at
2.5 MW generating output capacity, with a total generation capacity
of 20 MW.
