AGL to visit Silverton to discuss proposed wind farm - 11 May 2012

Wind Turbines courtesy Wikipedia
Okay, it’s not quite Broken Hill, but it is the Hill’s nearest neighbour, just 25 kms from town.  I’m talking about Silverton.  There will be an information session regarding the proposed Silverton wind farm, at the Silverton War Memorial Youth Camp in Layard Street on Friday 11th May 2012 between 4.40 pm and 7.30 pm.  Representatives from AGL will meet with interested parties to discuss AGL’s new ownership of the rights to the proposed wind farm.

If the proposal proceeds the wind farm would become one of the largest renewable energy projects in the Southern Hemisphere.

There has been a lot of talk about the proposal in the media and around town, so to get some facts, it’s probably worth attending the session.

Cheers, Jane D
