Representatives from Granville Harbour Wind Farm, Vestas, Rex Andrews Transport and Department of State Growth Transport Safety escort officers took part in a native wildlife orientation at Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary this week.

Protecting Tasmania’s unique wildlife is a key consideration in the development of Granville Harbour Wind Farm, and with the delivery of oversize wind turbine components expected to commence next month, we are working to ensure we minimise any impact to native wildlife.

The orientation session was designed to make sure everyone involved in the project had a good understanding of the native wildlife that may be encountered, their natural behaviours and practical steps that can be taken to minimise the chance of animals being injured during the movement of the wind farm infrastructure.
