The proposal by AMEC to build a windfarm in the Clashashindarroch
forest has been turned down by the Scottish Government. I don't know
if AMEC have a right to appeal against the decision. Report on BBC
website reads:

"Plans for a wind farm in Aberdeenshire which sparked controversy
have been turned down by the Scottish Government.
The energy company Amec had applied to build 40 turbines at
Clashindarroch near Huntly.

Ministers have now sided with the argument of local campaigners who
said it would be potentially damaging to the environment of the
Deveron Valley.

Another wind farm near Aberfeldy in Perthshire was rejected, however
one in Dumfries and Galloway was approved.

Amec applied for consent to construct the wind farm at Clashindarroch
in 2003. The proposal was for 47 turbines, which was later reduced to
40.

A public local inquiry was held in May last year."
