Hi Janice, We are having a meeting on wind developments in the River Valley area Tuesday at 6"30 pm, July 20 at the Dirigo High School library.

Oh, this will never be a problem. International protocol for turbine fires is to let them combust, and when they collapse, then put out the forest fire. Assuming there are any trees remaining near the turbines, this gives responders several minutes…

Good question. If damage to your land or property occurs because of a wind machine event, will your homeowner's policy cover it ? Will the developer's insurance cover it ? Do you, as the effected owner, need the headaches from fighting with insuranc…

Geographical considerations are part of an assessor's valuation of one's property. People place a value on scenic views and the government, recognizing this, allow your property value to be increased accordingly. Part of the government's tax everyth…

So much for the monitors they claim to put up at each proposed turbine location three times a year.

All this to develop a resource destined to fail.

Janice, Freemont will be at the American Legion Hall tomorrow with the petition for Dixfield. I hope you can stop in and see how he is doing. I will be there to relieve him after work, around 4:15 pm Thanks Dan

Janice, Patriot Renewables will be coming to Carthage on June 10th for an "update" meeting in Carthage. You should try to go and ask this question for yourself. Friends of Saddleback will be holding their own forum later in the month. More on that a…

INSURANCE POLICY ON SADDLEBACK WIND TURBINES.......

Everybody that has abutting property to the Saddleback Ridge Turbine Project should be finding out from your town who is going to be the policy holder for insurance on the project. Is it the town, the landowner or is the lease holder of the project paying the landowners insurance or is the leaseholder taking out the insurance policy???? This would be a good question for all abutting land owners that agree or oppose the turbine project.

WHATS GOING TO BE CARTHAGE FIRE DEPARTMENTS RESPONSE TIME TO A FIRE ON THEIR WIND TURBINES??

I wonder if they, the people that are voting this in and the ones leasing their land have taken this into consideration.
The access road, which will be the Winterhill road off Rt.#2 on the Dixfield side seems to be off the beaten path for Carthage Fire Department. Correct me if I'm wrong, (a voluntary fire department at that). Wow do they even think they could get to a forest fire from one of their TURBINES before it got out of control without relying on Dixfield volunteer and East Dixfield… Continue

BLASTING THE TOP OF THE SADDLEBACK RIDGELINE


Last evening while at Patriots Renewable Info. meeting in Carthage, the topic was brought up on access roads to get to the proposed site on Saddleback Ridge. From the way it sounds the mountain top ridge will be blasted for a total of at least 3 and a half miles. WOW! Now look what we will have after this! Western Maine Man Made Mountain tops. What a site that will be! I wonder how that will appear in tourism brochures! If this passes in all the surrounding towns, our state government will… Continue

ATT: THE FLIGHT PATH

Last evening at 7:30.m. while working outside my husband and I heard the sounds off in a distance of the geese that take this flight path each year. Within minutes they were overhead. We stopped what we were doing and sat back to watch this beautiful site. GUESS WHERE THE FLIGHT PATH IS ? Right over SADDLEBACK MOUNTAIN RIDGE....... I can only wonder if the Flight Path Monitor is still in place on Saddle Back, when it was in place, what month it was in place, how long it was in place, and what da… Continue

“Do the voters of Carthage support the opportunity to develop local renewable energy including wind in order to create jobs, increase tax revenue and provide clean energy.”
Good question and there are other good questions that need to be answered.
“ Do the voters of Carthage support the opportunity to learn, question and decide upon their future through enactment of a time-out period ( a moratorium ) ? “
Thank you for taking the time to read this
From one who believes the people have the right to
Decide.

a letter to persuade the people of Carthage:

“Do the voters of Carthage support the opportunity to develop local renewable energy including wind in order to create jobs, increase tax revenue and provide clean energy.”
Now, who would vote negatively to that statement ? But is there more to wind projects not revealed in this statement and, if there is, shouldn’t you have the opportunity to learn, question and decide ?
Why are so many towns enacting moratoriums on wind power development ? What is a moratorium ?
A moratorium creates a six month time-out period , designed to allow people a chance to ponder the recourse a proposed project will have on their way of life as well as their neighbor’s way of life. The proposed project is not allowed to proceed into the construction phase during this period of time.
Some towns use this time to arrange forums, bringing in speakers to help people understand both sides ( the good and the bad points of wind projects ).
Some towns put together a ordinance committee to develop regulations with intent to ensure that the health and welfare of the community is not infringed upon by the project.
Some towns will do both and some will do one or the other. Sometimes, the moratorium is established before a project has been proposed, and sometimes after proposal. Often times, moratoriums are extended when resolutions by the people have not be reached.
The important thing is that a moratorium puts you, the people, in charge. Not the state and not the developer.
The project in Carthage is probably 8 to 10 months from beginning of construction providing the state grants the developers a permit.
HAD TO BREAK LETTER TO TWO COMMENT SECTIONS CONTINUES WITH SECOND COMMENT.

J Albrecht of Dixfield wrote a comment about the wind debate in Dixfield expressing concerns for the people on Common Road who will be greatly affected by them. I added a comment:



jalbrecht1 makes a good point about citizen's feelings towards other citizens. Advocating for these wind turbines knowing fellow citizens within the community will suffer would do irrepairable damage to community spirit. Wondering if others in Dixfield felt the same, my father-in-law and I approached nearly half the residents living on our road, which, by the way would be immune to the visual and noise effects of putting these wind machines atop Colonel Holman:



DO YOU OPPOSE WIND TURBINES ON COLONEL HOLMAN MOUNTAIN?
YOU ARE NOT ALONE
As fellow citizens of Dixfield, we strongly support you and your desire
to prevent the wind turbines from appearing atop Colonel Holman
Mountain.
Monday night at 6pm, September 28, at the Ludden Library, our first
public hearing concerning wind towers will be held, and not a moment
too soon.
As the town of Byron has proved, the earliest stages of the wind
company's proposal is the time to stop them. They were loud and they
were emphatic and they were heard clearly NO WIND!!!!
If we open the door for wind towers on Colonel Holman Mountain, we
open the door to Holman Mountain and Sugarloaf Mountain.
SPEAK OUT
If you are undecided, come to this hearing and listen to fellow citizens as
they reveal the real facts about wind and wind companies.



15 of 15 people signed on agreeing with this statement.

I thought you might like to know this.
