Suncor Wind Farm Ruling Expected Thursday

An Environmental Review Tribunal ruling on Suncor's proposed Cedar Point wind project is expected Thursday.

There's been stiff opposition to the 43-turbine project in Plympton-Wyoming and Lambton Shores, led by a grassroots group called WAIT: We're Against Industrial Turbines.

The county of Lambton and the Bryce Family, that has a number of turbines around their home, also formally opposed the plan.

Last fall the tribunal dismissed an appeal of NextEra Energy's 92-turbine project in Lambton Shores and Warwick Twp.
