Dirty Ocean Turbine Electricity In Your Back Yard NIMBY

When talking about wind turbines in Falmouth people used to say NIMBY about those that got the two town wind turbines in their neighborhood "Not In My Back Yard." Today a massive ocean wind turbine electric cable and substation capable of powering 500,000 to 1 million homes is proposed through residential locations NIMBY "Next It May Be You."

Dirty electricity refers to electromagnetic energy traveling along high voltage power lines
Placing transmission or distribution lines underground does not necessarily shield or reduce magnetic fields without expensive mitigation

The exposure limits for EMF fields were developed by the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection

ICNIRP is a nongovernmental organization formally recognized by the World Health Organization (WHO)

The Town of Falmouth without being a municipal light plant community is considering a partnership with contractors on an underground high voltage 800-megawatt ocean wind turbine cable from Falmouth Heights to a brand new yet to be built electric substation on Blacksmith Shop Road from there aerially the Town of Bourne

Exposure to this type of electro-pollution has been associated with a wide variety of health problems such as childhood Leukemia, asthma, sleep disturbances, fatigue, skin rashes, and tingling sensations, allergy symptoms, headaches, muscle and joint pain, brain fog, memory loss, ADD/ADHD symptoms, depression, and more

The Massachusetts Act to Promote Energy Diversity allows for the procurement of up to 1,600 megawatts of offshore wind energy by 2027 and the most current goal includes installing 3,500 by 2035

The act does not limit the amount of power or EMF transmission through residential locations

The project should require residential abutter notifications and public hearing for 800 to 1600 megawatts traveling through residential locations

The proposed land route through Falmouth is the least expensive to the electric grid rather than an ocean wind turbine cable to New Bedford of Fall River

The Falmouth Select Board meets on October 26, 2020, with wind turbine contractors
