Province clarifies conditions of Wheatley turbine project approval


Monday, CBC News reported the province had banned the company from using a pile driving technique to install turbines. The project was approved with a number of conditions, including that it must "not utilize pile foundations for project infrastructure." Pile foundations are created through pile driving, a technique that some Chatham-Kent families claim pushes sediment into their water sources. "Including the condition in the approval does not mean there is a ban on pile driving." Meantime, the Romney Wind Energy Centre project maintains it did not apply for nor plan to use pile foundations all along.
