Environment ministry says risk to migratory birds too great
A wind project proposed near a shorebird habitat in southwestern Saskatchewan will not go ahead, says the provincial government.
The province announced it had denied a 79-turbine wind project near Chaplin, Sask., on Monday morning in a news release.
The environment ministry said it received 137 responses during a public review period of Algonquin Power & Utilities’ proposed wind farm in 2015.
