Tim Crookall says the Earystane and Scard site will not be reclassified
The chair of Manx Utilities has confirmed the proposed windfarm site at Earystane and Scard is not on heathland.
Tim Crookall told the House of Keys yesterday (31 October), the authority is using definitions from the Department of Environment, Food and Agriculture to make this determination.
Jason Moorhouse, MHK for Arbory, Castletown and Malew, had asked the MU for a new assessment.
Mr Crookall says studies have been done which show 'small patches' of heath in the area:
Plans for 'all-age pathway' for adult autism and ADHD diagnosis by 2029
Some trailers got 'lost' during recent backlog of freight at Heysham
Police told to reassess FOI response
Census support available from next week
Mobile classroom needed to 'alleviate' pressure at Henry Bloom Primary School
