On 25 March 2022, the Company announced that the Minister for the Environment, the Hon David Parker, had decided to accept the Company’s application to refer the Te Rere Hau wind farm repowering project (Project) to an expert consenting panel (Panel) for consideration under the COVID-19 Recovery (Fast-track Consenting) Act 2020 (FTCA).
This announcement was conditional on receiving an Order in Council for the Project. NZ Windfarms is pleased to announce that it has received the Order in Council to have the project referred to a Panel for consideration under the FTCA. This is attached to the pdf version of the NZX release.
Importantly, the Minister’s decision to refer the Project to a Panel under the FTCA, should not be taken as an indication or direction that resource consents will be granted. Additionally, the referral decision does not in any way endorse any related planning decisions that may affect the Project.
Mr Warren Koia NZ Windfarms Chief Executive says “The next steps in the process will be the continuation of consultation with affected parties, the community, iwi and stakeholders, finalisation of the proposed design and layout and the development of a resource consent application and assessment of environmental effects. Once that is complete the Company will be able to file an application with the Environmental Protection Authority (EPA) to have its resource consent application considered by a Panel under the FTCA. An application could occur later in the year”.
For further information, contact Warren Koia, Chief Executive, by phone on 06 280 2773, or by email at info@nzwindfarms.co.nz.
