Falmouth, Massachusestts USA : local and state politicians had warnings letters, emails, memos, maps that showed in advance of the installations how dangerous megawatt wind turbines can cause health and property takings

Federal officials knew in 1987 about infra sound studies by the US Department of Energy in Boone North Carolina. The NASA investigation by Dr. Neil Kelley and his colleagues established a link between the symptoms (including sleep disturbance) reported by the Boone, North Carolina residents and a single wind turbine
Falmouth officials ignored all the warning signs and information below
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A 2003 study entitled "Effects of the Wind Profile at Night on Wind Turbine Sound" was published in the JOURNAL OF SOUND AND VIBRATIION.
The study cited that local residents living 500 meters [1,640 feet] and further from their wind farm reacted strongly to the noise.
Residents up to 1,900 meters [6,233 feet] from the wind farm expressed annoyance.
The actual noise generated by the wind turbines is significantly greater than the original sound assessment. For example, measurements of actual wind speed at the hub height at night were up to 2.6 times higher than expected.
These wind speeds caused higher rotational speed of the wind turbines and consequently up to a 15 dB higher sound level (sound levels were expected to be 43 dB but have been measured at 58 dB). The turbines also produce a thumping, impulsive sound, which increased annoyance

Part 1 of a documentary of a wind farm operating in Meyersdale, Pennsylvania. This film is useful to watch because the topography is similar to the topography in Stamford, and the turbines are close to the size that Invenergy is proposing. This wind farm was completed in 2001, and this film consists of interviews with residents who have been living with the turbines for 5 years.

Maine Center For Public Interest Reporting – Three Part Series: A CRITICAL LOOK AT MAINE’S WIND ACT

******** IF LINKS BELOW DON'T WORK, GOOGLE THEM*********

(excerpts) From Part 1 – On Maine’s Wind Law “Once the committee passed the wind energy bill on to the full House and Senate, lawmakers there didn’t even debate it. They passed it unanimously and with no discussion. House Majority Leader Hannah Pingree, a Democrat from North Haven, says legislators probably didn’t know how many turbines would be constructed in Maine if the law’s goals were met." . – Maine Center for Public Interest Reporting, August 2010 https://www.pinetreewatchdog.org/wind-power-bandwagon-hits-bumps-in-the-road-3/From Part 2 – On Wind and Oil Yet using wind energy doesn’t lower dependence on imported foreign oil. That’s because the majority of imported oil in Maine is used for heating and transportation. And switching our dependence from foreign oil to Maine-produced electricity isn’t likely to happen very soon, says Bartlett. “Right now, people can’t switch to electric cars and heating – if they did, we’d be in trouble.” So was one of the fundamental premises of the task force false, or at least misleading?" https://www.pinetreewatchdog.org/wind-swept-task-force-set-the-rules/From Part 3 – On Wind-Required New Transmission Lines Finally, the building of enormous, high-voltage transmission lines that the regional electricity system operator says are required to move substantial amounts of wind power to markets south of Maine was never even discussed by the task force – an omission that Mills said will come to haunt the state.“If you try to put 2,500 or 3,000 megawatts in northern or eastern Maine – oh, my god, try to build the transmission!” said Mills. “It’s not just the towers, it’s the lines – that’s when I begin to think that the goal is a little farfetched.” https://www.pinetreewatchdog.org/flaws-in-bill-like-skating-with-dull-skates/

Sign up today and lend your voice and presence to the steadily rising tide that will soon sweep the scourge of useless and wretched turbines from our beloved Maine countryside. For many of us, our little pieces of paradise have been hard won. Did the carpetbaggers think they could simply steal them from us?

We have the facts on our side. We have the truth on our side. All we need now is YOU.
