Mountain being considered as site for 21 turbines
The company behind a controversial wind farm plan near Pugwash is also proposing to build upwards of 21 turbines atop Nuttby Mountain, Colchester County, said to be the highest spot in mainland Nova Scotia.
Clair Peers, president of Cobequid Wind Power, said a group of companies intends to propose both locations to Nova Scotia Power by the end of August as part of the electric company's search for renewable energy projects.
"Everybody's out there now getting their projects in order so they can make the deadline," Mr. Peers said during a telephone interview Monday morning.
A public open house was held near the project site later in the day.
