SWEDEN -- A thousand truckloads of shaft masses were unlawfully dumped in the forest in connection with the construction of the future wind farm in Viksjö, northwest of Härnösand. The company has previously been reported to the police and is now at risk of new police reports.

It was at an environmental inspection that the county administrative board in Västernorrland discovered the gigantic dumping site in the future Hästkullen wind farm outside Viksjö.

The County Administrative Board has estimated that these are 10,000 cubic meters of masses that were unlawfully dumped in a steep slope towards an marsh area. In connection with the inspection, the power company Nysäter Wind decided to immediately stop the entire building.
