15/06/09 – FRING ANEMOMETER MAST

The Borough Council refused planning permission for the anemometer mast and the applicant launched an immediate appeal. The closing date for further submissions to the Planning Inspectorate is 18/09/09 and a decision is awaited. It has since emerged that the wind farm will be for seven turbines, each of 2MW. Each turbine will be 126 metres (409 feet) high, with a blade diameter of 92 metres (299 feet).

27/04/09 – FRING ANEMOMETER MAST

The madness continues ! A planning application has been submitted for an anemometer mast at Fring. This is the first stage of the planning process for yet another local wind farm. The maps on the planning application are useless, but if you draw a triangle from Bircham to Docking and back to Fring, the site is more or less in the middle of that triangle. The location of the site may seen on this aerial view , albeit that the red blob shown is somewhat larger than the actual diameter of the mast and it’s guy wires (80 metres). Details of the planning application are on the Borough web site.
