Chance to discuss wind farm concerns

Wed, 05 Sep 2012

Members of the public have a chance to discuss a wind farm extension project which could directly affect the Isle of Man today.

A public exhibition is being held by Dong Energy which is planning to extend the Walney wind farm which is around 31KM south east from the Island.

Concerns have already been raised about the wind farm extension due to its close proximity to the Steam Packet’s sailing routes which could be affected in bad weather.

Representatives from Dong will be on hand at the Villa Marina to answer any questions or queries that people may have.

The exhibition will take place between 1pm and 7pm and is free to attend.
