A council visit to the site of two windfarms planned for Inverness-shire could be called off because of bad weather.
Highland’s south planning committee is due to visit the site of the Millennium Windfarm extension near Invergarry, and the Beinn Mhor windfarm at Tomich, both inverness-shire.
Falck Renewables wants to add a further 10 turbines to the existing 26 devices near Glenmoriston.
The new scheme, which includes 5miles of access tracks, could potentially generate up to 35MW of electricity.
Fort Augustus Community Council and the Mountaineering Council for Scotland (MCoS) were among those objecting, but council planners have recommended that the local authority raises no objection.
In a report Ken McCorquodale said that the existing windfarm had not caused a significant visual impact, adding that the additional turbines would not have an adverse impact.
Councillor were due to discuss the plans last month but deferred for a site visit when one member criticised photomontages of the proposals.
A spokeswoman for Falck said: “This would be an extension to the existing Millennium Wind Farm which is a well-established wind farm on a site with an excellent wind resource. The extension would have a minimal visual impact as most of the turbines will be within the footprint of the existing wind farm.”
The Beinn Mhor windfarm, at Guisachen includes six turbines.
More than 1,200 objections were lodged against the plans because of its potential impact on Glen Affric and the conservation village of Tomich.
Objectors included Strathglass and Kilmorack Community Councils.
But planners have recommended the plans be approved.
Highland Council said that a meeting will take place on Friday to consider if er the site visit can take place.
However a final decision will be taken on Monday morning.
The committee meets on Tuesday.
