The resource consents were granted in February 2009 with conditions, including a limit of 29 turbines and a maximum height of 111m. Local Ohariu Valley residents who opposed the development lodged an appeal to the Environment Court. In August 2011, the Environment Court approved the resource consents for the project, subject to a limit of 26 turbines. Construction began in late 2012, and the first electricity was generated in May 2014. It became fully operational in October 2014. 〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Mill Creek Wind Farm )〕 == See also == *Wind power in New Zealand 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mill Creek Wind Farm」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
