The Victorian Planning Minister has said that he will order noisy wind farm turbines to be turned off, regardless of the cost to the operators, if it can be shown that the turbines breach noise limit rules.

The Minister made the comments when asked if the Waubra Wind Farm complied with the noise guidelines.

Matthew Guy told Steve Martin that so far he hasn’t received any information that shows the facility is breaking the rules.
