A Community Consultative Committee (CCC) was established in 2012. The CCC meets regularly and provides a forum for discussion between Tilt Renewables and representatives of the community, council and stakeholders with an interest in the Rye Park Wind Farm.

Copies of the CCC Meeting Minutes can be found here.

You can contact the Chair of the Rye Park CCC via email, should you wish to be connected with any of the Committee Members.

Read more about the role and function of a CCC at the NSW Department of Planning and Environment website.
