Wind Sites Ireland Slatbeg Wind Farm County Tyrone Slatbeg Wind Farm, lies on the lower northern slopes of the Slieve Beagh range within the townland of Fardross Mountain, which is situated in the old civil parish of Clogher. The relevant area lies within both the barony and ancient diocese of Clogher and the county of Tyrone. The site lies approximately 6 km to the south-west of the town of Clogher. The site is surrounded by commercial forestry to the north, and west and covers just over 1km2 in area. The land use of the site reflects a significant degree of human activity. The predominant land use activity within the proposed development site is the grazing of animals although there is significant evidence of historic and recent turf cutting land use activity. Layouts The proposed wind farm will consist of 9 three bladed, horizontal axis, upwind turbines with a rotor diameter of nominally 84m, and a hub height of around 70m. The maximum ground to tip height will not exceed 112m. These machines will have a nominal generator rating of 2-2.5MW resulting in an overall site installed capacity of between 18 and 22.5MW.   Environmental Impact A full Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) has been undertaken which has included Landscape and Visual, Ecological, Archaeological, Hydrology, Geology and Noise Assessments for the wind farm. The assessments have been compiled into an Environmental Statement (ES) which was submitted accompanying a planning application for the wind farm in August 2006. A non technical summary for the wind farm is available on request.
