I have a copy fo the draft REA that I received in March when I attended a Mis-Information session that was put on by Invenergy…It fails to indicate exactly where the turbines will be located within the mapped area indicated as the Wind Farm project…I've followed up a couple of times with the project manager to gather this information with no response forthcoming…Is there a method in this process that will allow me to get a more detailed explanation as to exactly where the infrastructure will be located including confirmation of the set-backs….Otherwise I fear that we will all be sitting in the dark until wind turbines are buzzing overhead….??
