Concern over Keeper Hill wind farm plan

The Nenagh Guardian | 6th August 2014 | www.nenaghguardian.ie

An Taisce has raised concern over the granting of planning permission for a wind farm of 16 large turbines on Keeper Hill.
ESB Wind Developments Ltd and Coillte have received approval from An Bord Pleanála for a wind farm at the Keeper townlands of Bunkimalta, Bauraglanna, Lackabrack, Knockfune and Foilduff. Each of the 16 turbines will comprise a tower up to a maximum of 100 metres high and three blades up to a maximum of 50 metres in length.
