Windfarm Plans on Brightenber Hill

The PWA were asked recently to comment on an application from Energie-Kontor (a German based group specialising in the development of windfarms) on their proposed development of a windfarm on Brightenber Hill in the Craven District. We had very little time to respond to this, however the Chairman replied stating that we had no meeting before the closing date for submissions. “We appreciate that the site is not, as far as we know, on designated land and in view of this and our lack of detailed knowledge we would not be objecting to the plans. I hasten to add that should further information become available to us we may well have to reconsider our discussion” At our last Executive Meeting no further information was forthcoming from the members present but any further comments from members are welcome.
