Tuesday, 3.45pm - THE Thackson's Well public inquiry began with campaigners seeking assurances over Infinergy's plans to increase the size of an electricity sub-station on the site.Infinergy's proposal prompted BLOT members to suspect this could indicate that the firm plans to build more turbines on the site or even share the sub-station with the proposed Palmer's Hollow wind farm less than half-a-mile away.
BLOT's advocate Tina Douglass asked Infinergy's representative Richard Glover whether their suspicions had any foundation.
Mr Glover said: "There is nothing sinister about this.
"It has nothing to do with allowing further capacity repowering or further turbines on this site or any other site."
