Mighty River Power will get its Turitea wind farm, albeit with only 60 of the 104 turbines originally planned. The board of inquiry released its final decision last week after Mighty River Power lodged resource consent applications back in 2008 to construct, maintain and operate a wind farm in the Turitea Reserve and adjoining farmland near Palmerston North. But the news doesn't necessarily mean the company will go ahead with its construction.
