Falmouth Ma. Wind Turbine Demolition Countdown Begins Today

Massachusetts: Green New Deal    August 1,2022

You can't put a monetary value on people's health and that's what's happened in Falmouth 

 
Since the  green-energy wind turbines went up in 2010 and 2012 the town of Falmouth has received massive complaints of health effects, noise complaints, and even diminished property values from its residents
 
The infrasound is described as a pulse that gets into your organs, or chest cavity, and mimics a heartbeat, giving you headaches. Neighbors describe it as extremely disturbing and it gets to the point where you have to leave. 
 
The town installed the turbines with no permits and was warned prior to installation that each turbine generates 110 decibels of noise equal to a hard rock band playing 24/7. 
 
Massachusetts Superior Court in 2017 ruled the turbines a nuisance and they have been shut since.
 
Atlantic Coast Dismantling won the bid to demolish both the turbines and will meet with the town of Falmouth Tuesday, August 2, 2022, to discuss cutting the power to the turbines the next week. The town issued an electric permit to Dagle Electric on June 29, 2022. Following the completion of the electricity, they will drain all the lubricants from the turbine. Reliable sources say the third week of August looks like the demolition week.
Falmouth, Massachusetts is the site of the worst-sited commercial wind turbines in the United States.
 
The Wall Street Journal published a scathing editorial on the experience of Falmouth, Massachusetts, which spent $10 million on wind turbines, and it’s been a disaster. The article was printed on February 4, 2019, titled: "A Green New Deal in Profile."

Update on "fluid" in turbines: 

1. It's about 200 gallons of caustic hydraulic fluid the same type they put in automobile transmissions. 

2. They always say they are going to investigate wind turbine fires but never tell the public. The gearbox bearings wear out in only a few years and overheat causing the 200 gallons of fluid to ignite.

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.
