A local anti-wind group is putting a wind farm developer on notice.The article can be read at the Woodstock Sentinel Review (links to the letter were added in this post)
The East Oxford Community Alliance alleges representatives from ProWind Canada Inc. have misled the public at meetings over the past few years, including one held in October 2012, by saying there are no adverse health effects related to wind turbines.
“They are not being forthright in the information they are providing to us and they are not providing the full picture,” Joan Morris, an East Oxford Community Alliance member, said.
Prowind Canada has received a conditional approval for a 25-megawatt wind farm on Gunn's Hill in Norwich Township and is currently working towards final reports for the Ministry of Environment.
A notice sent in early April by the East Oxford Community Alliance through its lawyer, Eric K. Gillespie, stated the group is requesting that ProWind fulfil “its responsibilities to fully and accurately describe any negative effects on health and safety.”
The notice also includes a variety of peer-reviewed studies from the scientific community that states there is a potential for adverse health effects for those living near the site of a wind turbine.
