Based on feedback from the local community RES has committed to undertake a baseline dust monitoring assessment along key roads that are proposed to be used for accessing the Project site during construction in areas near the Project. The results will be used as a baseline and point of comparison for future assessments during the construction phase of the Project. This assessment will begin before the end of the year and is expected to continue for a minimum of 6 months.

RES is working to finalise the Public Environment Report for the Project’s EPBC Assessment by the Federal Government. Part of the assessment process will involve a public comment period, currently expected to occur in Quarter 1 2025. We will advise further information on the timing of the public comment period in future newsletters.

RES is in the process of appointing an Independent Chairperson for the proposed CCC. Once appointed, applicants for the CCC will be contacted to enable the final confirmation of the committee.

Thank you to those who have registered interest for further pre-construction background noise monitoring at properties neighbouring the Project. The Project team is appointing a consultant to undertake the monitoring in late 2024 and will provide further information directly to interested property owners.

Following ongoing consultation with the community throughout 2023, RES hosted information sessions in November to provide detailed information about project design and to provide further information regarding potential impacts throughout the construction and operation phases of the Project. By doing this, RES can ensure that feedback from the local community and project neighbours is received and considered in advance of the planned development application submission in November/December 2023.

In early July, community drop in sessions were held at Ironpot and Kumbia Halls to showcase the revised design of the Tarong West Wind Farm. The sessions were well attended, with neighbour and broader community feedback helping to identify areas of interest or concern - traffic, accommodation, noise and benefit. As the project submits its Development Application later in 2024, RES will continue to work with community, local council and state government to develop a socially and environmentally responsible renewable energy project.

Following initial information sessions held in May 2022, RES held several community information sessions in October to update the community on design changes and assessment outcomes, and to seek further feedback about the proposed project. 

In May, the Iron Leaf Wind Farm project team ran several informal drop-in sessions in the area to receive local feedback, provide updated information and understand any early concerns about the proposed project. 

Feedback from these sessions touched on local employment, visual amenity, noise and traffic - amongst other things - and will be considered in the ongoing development of the project. 

RES is committed to ensuring that the community is informed about the progress of the project and has a voice in decision making processes. Further opportunity to provide feedback will be advertised locally. To receive ongoing updates about the project, please complete a Have Your Say Form to register your details. 

RES is planning several community information sessions for the first half of 2022 to introduce the Project, understand community concerns or issues and explore opportunities to provide immediate and long-term local benefit.

Details of these information sessions will be provided closer to the date.
