Register your interest in our Off-site Landscaping Program
Residents at dwellings with a view to wind turbines, within 5 km of a Golden Plains Wind Farm wind turbine will be invited to participate in a landscaping program. This will provide for landscaping to reduce the visual impact of the turbines. After expressions of interest are received, a landscape and visual assessment will be undertaken at each property, to determine eligibility and appropriate measure/s.
