  A wind farm with an operational lifespan of 30 years, from commissioning, which will connect to the national grid. The proposed wind farm will consist of 7 no. wind turbines with blade tip heights of up to a maximum of 150 metres, and associated foundations and hardstand areas. The proposed development includes a site substation compound with security fencing and a single storey control building and associated loop-in infrastructure to tie into an existing 38kV overhead transmission line, underground cabling, drainage and service infrastructure, bored well, 1 no. permanent meteorological mast of 92 metres in height, tree felling and a temporary construction compound. The development includes landscaping and all associated ancillary development works. Vehicular access will be via an upgraded existing site entrance off the L8456 local road with provision made for the upgrade of existing on-site tracks and the construction of new on-site access roads. It will also include widening of two junctions along the turbine delivery route. The first is at the N71 - R592 junction in Knockroe townland, east of Ballydehob. These works will consist of the temporary removal of a section of masonry wall, public street lighting stanchion, gate, gate posts, trees and earthern berm and the raising of levels with engineered fill to that of the adjacent N71. The second is at the N71 - L8456 junction in Shronagree townland. These works will consist of the lowering of ground levels to that of the adjacent N71 and L8456 and the removal of traffic signage. Both locations to be restored following turbine delivery.
