for which the government has just approved the spatial plan on a national level
The company intends to install three wind turbines on the slopes of the Košenjak mountain in Dravograd
It expects to commission the 19.8 MW facility in early 2028
but DEM revised it to avoid the habitat of western capercaillie (Tetrao urogallus)
local citizens that formed a group opposing the project are warning of the effects of low-frequency noise
Slovenia didn’t determine a minimum distance between wind turbines and homes
expressing concern over health and the environment
Dravograd Mayor Anton Preksavec says drinking water reserves could be polluted
According to a hydrogeological study that municipal utility firm Dravograd published
the local shallow aquifer could be impacted
mostly from the construction and the widening of access roads
“The risk is too big,” Preksavec stressed
Climate and Energy approved on June 13 the environmental terms for Ojstrica
Representatives of the local activist initiative in Dravograd missed the complaint deadline
They accused the ministry of making the decision hard to find online and argued that they found it only three months later
Mayor Anton Preksavec warned that a shallow aquifer could be impacted by access road construction
But the process is not over: the group appealed and even supplemented the appeal at the request of the ministry
that the documentation doesn’t indicate a minimum distance and that even the owners of the land included in the project are against it
She added that she is not against wind farms but that such projects must be placed on “healthy foundations.”
DEM is part of energy utility Holding Slovenske elektrarne – HSE
Disputes with locals and activists in Greece and Turkey over wind turbines have been frequent for several years now

Severe floods have killed at least 4 people in Slovenia and caused damage estimated at €500m
Numerous roads have had to be closed due to significant damage or the floodwaters making them impassible
Robert Golob has described the damage as “unimaginable”
He has also been quoted as saying that two-thirds of Slovenia is affected in one way or another
An update provided by the Slovenian Government on its website yesterday confirmed that heavy rains had caused damage to roads and bridge structures and deposited debris on them
Some bridges have been destroyed and some roads are inaccessible
Three bridges have been destroyed in the Ljubljana area alone:
The Maribor region has also been badly hit; a 2 km stretch of road G2-112 on the section 1256 Ravne–Dravograd was destroyed by the floods

In between fighting battles, gathering resources and making questionable decisions, there are some golden chests scattered across the map for you to find in CD Projekt Red's Thronebreaker: The Witcher Tales
Thronebreaker: The Witcher Tales is the latest RPG title in The Witcher franchise
It's a 30-hour adventure lead by Queen Meve of Lyria and Rivia and builds on the lore of the enormous Witcher universe
it incorporates the Gwent card game as its mode of combat
as well as including the franchise's trademark morally grey decision making
You may have noticed some golden chests on your travels
Some are obviously placed and others a little harder to find
so here's where to find them all on the Lyria map
Their loot can vary from avatars and cards to use in the standalone Gwent game and it's definitely one for the completionists out there
Thronebreaker: The Witcher Tales is out now on PS4

Thronebreaker: The Witcher Tales is a standalone offshoot of what had originally planned to be the singleplayer campaign of the actual Gwent game by CD Projekt RED
but that doesn't mean that there aren't connections between the two titles
if you've been playing Thronebreaker: The Witcher Tales
you've surely come across mysterious golden chests in your travels
These are especially useful if you're playing Gwent alongside Thronebreaker
if you want to make full use of these chests
you're going to need to know where to find them
Thronebreaker: The Witcher Tales Golden Chest Lyria Locations
- #1 can be found to the right of the starting waypoint marker
- #2 is located on a hill northeast of the Hawkesburn waypoint
- #3 can be found if you go east of Hawkesburn
close by the bridge past the next waypoint
- #4 just go south to the next waypoint from #3
- #5 is by the western wall if you go even further south
- #6 will require some backtracking southwest across the nearby bridge
- #7 go back the way you came after getting #6 all the way to Rastburg; when there
head westward all the way around the castle
- #8 can be found at the northeastern tip of the island smack-dab in the middle of the map - go east of the waypoint
- #10 can be found if you go around Dravograd
follow the path southwest all the way to the second waypoint; when you're there
And that's that. The stuff you find in these chests will prove to be more than a decent boost to your Gwent experience. If you're interested in playing Thronebreaker after reading this guide, do mind that you won't find it on Steam
