Inspector overrides objections to give windfarm green light

An Bord Pleanála has given the green light for the company to build 14 turbines, each 126m, on Coillte-owned land in the Ballyhoura Mountains, north of Doneraile.
Despite some objections, the appeals board inspector, Bríd Maxwell, decided that building the 14 turbines would not adversely affect the landscape, or seriously affect the visual or residential amenities of the area.
