Decision Released
Wel Networks has won permission to build its controversial 28-turbine wind farm, christened Te Hauhiko o Wharauroa, at Te Uku.
The decision by a panel of commissioners released on Friday 30 May 2008, by Waikato District Council to approve resource consent for the project comes after five years of Wel investigations into wind power generation, and two years of feasibility studies on the Wharauroa Plateau in Te Uku.
The decision is available in two parts as *.pdf files. We recommend that you do not try to open these in your web browser unless you are on a fast broadband connection,
and that you use the "Save Target as" option and upload the files to your own computer for reading.
