As part of the preparation of the Environmental and Social Impact Study of the Wind Power Plant "Bitovnja", on July 4 and 5, 2023, workshops were held with the local population in the settlement Dusina (Municipality of Fojnica) and in the pilgrimage center of Deževica Parish with residents of Deževica (Municipality of Kreševo).

Although the project area of the
WPP "Bitovnja" is entirely located in the area of the town of Konjic,
Dusina and Deževica are nearby settlements and their residents use the area
near the project area.
Acquainting those present with the activities related to the preparation of investment technical documentation, prof. dr. Mustafa Musić, Assistant to the general manager for development, presented the plan for the construction of the WPP "Bitovnja", emphasizing that it is a large project with a power of up to 90 MW, worth about 200 million BAM.
During the workshops, it was
pointed out that as part of the implementation of the project, minimal measures
are planned in the area for the needs of transportation and installation of
wind turbines, which relate to the widening of the road to the project area,
and the construction of transmission lines for the connection of the VE
"Bitovnja". After the construction of VE "Bitovnja",
everything will be returned to its original state, and special attention will
be paid to the cranberry and blueberry plantations.
