This document contains a planning application for an extension to the Clashindarroch Wind Farm, located near the Cairngorms National Park, submitted under the Electricity Act. The Cairngorms National Park Authority (Park Authority) is reviewing the proposal to assess its impact on the landscape and special qualities of the National Park, following advice from NatureScot. The proposed wind farm extension includes 22 turbines, and while some visibility from within the National Park is expected, NatureScot believes the effects on the area's special landscape qualities will not damage the integrity and objectives of the National Park. The Park Authority is being recommended to not object to the proposed wind farm extension.
