Advisory Review Urirama Windpark |
Significant details
Some main conclusions of the NCEA's advisory report (which is in Dutch) are:
- The EIA provides a good description of the proposed activity, apart from minor imperfections in the description of noise effects;
- It is advisable to investigate possibilities to make adaptations in the project if stakeholders experience negative effects when the windpark is already in use;
- The EIA does not describe alternative locations; reasons for this are provided in the EIA but more information on the local situation would be required to judge their validity.
