Confederation Building in St. John’s, in a proportional comparison with the Port au Port turbines. - Greg Mitchell illustrationThe highest hill on the island of Newfoundland is not Gros Morne Mountain at Bonne Bay. That distinction is given to a peak in the Lewis Hills, just south of Gros Morne National Park, called The Cabox, at 814 metres above sea level.
In other words, WEGH2 want exclusive use up to one half of the peninsula and exclusive rights to the two hundred metres of the air above it. The bottom swing of the 518-foot-diametre rotor blades will not quite reach the top height of the Sir Richard Squires Building in Corner Brook; you could park the building under these turbines without damage to the building.
The tour of the site took several hours, and participants were provided with a written description of the Haldimand Site by WEGH2. In the written materials, participants were advised that the Haldimand site was smaller than the proposal for their area. The Port au Port Peninsula could end up with 492 huge twirling blades, 260 feet long, running day and night.
