- Nova Scotia provides setbacks of 1.44 km for onshore wind farms... added March 2, 2009
- Addendum to Glen Dhu Environmental Assessment and Registration Document
Issue 1: Noise - Sixteen public comments regarding noise issues were submitted in response to the EA Document.

This provides a setback distance along the western boundary of the Project of approximately 1.44 km and along the eastern boundary maintained a minimum distance of approximately 1.12 km from the nearest residence which belongs to a Project Participant. These distances exceed the by-law requirements of both Pictou and Antigonish counties.
