An open letter has been sent to Aberdeenshire and Moray councils expressing concern about the development of more wind farms in the Upper Deveron Valley.

The letter calls for urgent action to undertake “an inter-authority regional landscape capacity assessment” and to put any new developments on the back burner for now.
