Harrison to the MOE on Noise

"Three compliance tests demonstrate the under-estimation by up to 15 dBA, up to 12 dBA and up to 8 dBA respectively.  Some of this under-estimation can be put down to bad engineering; some can be put down to the science of sound generation and propagation that has been published over the past two decades but not acknowledged by the Ministry of the Environment."

Harrison to the MOE on Noise - Amherst Island Wind Info:

John Harrison has been studying the noise produced by wind turbines for a number of years.  Recently he submitted a report to the Ontario MOE going over (yet again) the many reasons the actual measured noise levels are far above what the Ontario noise limits and even farther above what was predicted by the proponents.  He has every reason to believe that the actual noise levels that will be experienced by many of the residents of Amherst Island will likewise be above Ontario’s limits.
His evidence for this belief is substantial.  In this report he presents 3 case studies where the measured noise levels were above Ontario’s limits.  Two of those case studies (Lormand/Ashbee and Libby) have appeared on windfarmrealities previously.  Added is a case study at an unknown location in the Melancthon area.
