Falmouth 5 Doctors Absolutely Wrong Wind Turbine Noise

Falmouth Five Doctors Ethically Wrong Turbine Noise

The town was aware the turbines generate 110 decibels of noise prior to the installations see Freedom of Information Act letter dated August 3, 2010 - The town was warned prior to the installations the turbine was as loud as a hard rock band

The Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court has denied a petition by the town of Falmouth to review a zoning case concerning the town’s controversial wind turbines.

The State of Massachusetts found the turbines out of regulatory compliance.

The Town of Falmouth recently released the August 3, 2010 letter from Vestas the owners of the turbines that shows the town always knew the turbines put out 110 decibels twice as loud as the specification.

The Massachusetts Clean Energy Center in an April 2013 Memo to Falmouth admitted the mistakes in acoustical testing prior to the installations.

The doctors stated they had listened to the Falmouth wind turbines and find there is little to hear. The measured decibels are modest. We are skeptical that any actual health hazard is created by their operation.

The doctors were duped !

The five Falmouth doctors would never have written their signed letter to the Falmouth Board of Health March 19, 2013 if they knew what the public knows today. Vestas wind company had warned the town prior to any wind turbine installations the turbines would put out 110 decibels of noise the same as a hard rock band outdoors.

4/6/2010 Wind 1 begins operation. Complaints from neighbors’s to town manager begin

The Falmouth doctors stated “they had listened to the Falmouth wind turbines and find there is little to hear. The measured decibels are modest. We are skeptical that any actual health hazard is created by their operation.”

These doctors without ever interviewing or examining the wind turbine victims mocked wind turbine victims as NIMBYs- Not In My Back Yard/

It has been known since the early 1980s that noise from large wind turbines can adversely affect human health. In 1981, physicist Neil Kelley and colleagues reported their investigation of complaints from residents living within 3 kilometers of an experimental 2-megawatt downwind two-blade wind turbine in Boone, North Carolina
