The company looking to install 18 wind turbines on the Nor'Wester mountain range has decided to host two additional public meetings next month, in order to gather input from residents in the Thunder Bay area.

Horizon Wind Inc. had originally scheduled just two meetings to be held Aug. 4 at the Blake Community Centre in Neebing and Aug. 5 at the Lakehead Labour Centre. But following concerns raised by some of the opponents of the project, the company has announced two more open houses near the end of the month.

Those meetings are scheduled to take place Aug. 23 at the Nor'Wester hotel and Aug. 24 at the Blake Community Centre.

Company officials say all comments received will be included in its consultation report that will be submitted to the Ministry of Environment for consideration with the company's final Renewable Energy Approval application.
