Site location
|
The proposed biomass power plant would be situated within the Corpach Harbour area, which is located to the south of the village of Corpach. The site is bound to the north by the Fort William / Mallaig Railway Line, beyond which runs the A830 Mallaig Road. Further beyond this are the BSW Kilmallie Sawmill and residential properties. To the east and south is Loch Linnhe, and to the west a disused paper mill site part of which has recently been subject to development relating to the Kilmallie sawmill.
The site itself comprises approximately 10 acres of land owned by Clydeport the majority of which is currently vacant. It comprises concrete hard-standing which is a remnant from its former use as a paper and pulp mill. Access to the site is taken from the A830 via the existing level crossing.
