Fantastic News 

On 19th March Carmarthenshire County Council determined this  application.  The decision was to REFUSE planning application for a 50mw power station in the Gwendraeth Valley.  

 

We thank them for the time that they have taken to review this application and applaud them for reaching a decision that ensures we all breath clean air in the future. 

 COEDBACH - REJECTED

Do you really want a 50MW power station and 500,000 tonnes of emissions in the Gwendraeth Valley? 

             Proposed Power Station at Coed Bach

   

   

Why We are Objecting:-

Ä   50 years of planning conditions restoring the site to agriculture ignored by planning

Ä   Extra 350 HGV movements per week on our rural roads

Ä   Major risk to human health from emissions and pollutants, asthma, cardiovascular diseases

Ä    Critical damage to protected species

Ä   Threat to recent inward investment in tourism eg Ffos Las, Pembrey

Ä     Low job creation - 40 is best estimate for £80 million investment

Ä   No evidence of sustainability, no carbon footprint
