(1)

F1Within Work No.1A, no wind turbine generator may—

(a)

exceed a height of 315 metres when measured from HAT to the tip of the vertical blade;

(b)

have a rotor diameter exceeding F2280 metres;

(c)

be less than a multiple of 6 times the rotor diameter from the nearest wind turbine generator in any direction being not less than 750 metres measured between wind turbine generators;

(d)

have a distance of less than 26 metres between the lowest point of the rotating blade of the wind turbine generator and HAT.

F3(1A)

Within Work No. 1B, no wind turbine generator may—

(a)

exceed a height of 315 metres when measured from HAT to the tip of the vertical blade;

(b)

have a rotor diameter exceeding 288 metres;

(c)

be less than a multiple of 6 times the rotor diameter from the nearest wind turbine generator in any direction being not less than 750 metres measured between wind turbine generators;

(d)

have a distance of less than 26 metres between the lowest point of the rotating blade of the wind turbine generator and HAT.

(2)

The total rotor-swept area within Work No. 1A must not exceed 4.35 square kilometres.

(3)

The total rotor-swept area within Work No. 1B must not exceed 4.35 square kilometres.

(4)

References to the location of a wind turbine generator are references to the centroid point at the base of the wind turbine generator.
