Western Plains Wind Farm Newsletter

Since the last project update Epuron have undertaken a range of studies of the wind farm site. Each of these studies helps in understanding the environmental and social impacts of the project. Studies include:

  • Flora and fauna
  • Avifauna
  • European heritage
  • Aboriginal heritage
  • Landscape and visual
  • Traffic and transport
  • Noise

Epuron have also consulted widely with key agencies, individuals and the wider community.

Before lodging the Development Proposal and Environmental Management Plan (DPEMP) Epuron seeks the community's feedback on the proposed layout of the wind farm. We will be holding an information day on the 8th of September and we invite all members of the community to come along and find out more about the proposal and discuss opportunities and concerns with the development team. Epuron also welcomes you to contact us directly and our contact information can be found in the attached newsletter.

When we have had community input into the wind farm proposal we will finalise the design and lodge the application with Circular Head Council and the EPA.
