Falmouth Wind Turbine Hidden Documents Set To Trigger "Anger"

Falmouth and Massachusetts Officials Intentionally Hid Wind Turbine Documents Causing Sleep Deprivation Broke Geneva Convention.

Falmouth and Massachusetts officials for the last eight years have and continue to commit the despicable act of hiding wind turbine documents.

The Vestas wind turbine letter shows politicians followed a state wind turbine agenda that takes health and property rights. Geneva Convention classifies sleep deprivation as torture. The World Health Organization now classifies wind turbine noise as a hazard.

The current Falmouth Select Board will only release the 2010 Vestas 110 decibel noise warning through an FOIA, Freedom of Information Act Request.

Select Board Members : Susan L. Moran, Chairman--Megan English Braga, Vice Chairman--Doug Jones--Samuel H. Patterson and Douglas C. Brown are keeping this letter secret through obfuscation.

In addition, the Falmouth Select Board callously in total disregard for public health and safety is attempting to move Falmouth Wind II and to reuse ARRA, American Recovery and Reinvestment Act funds that should never have been allocated for a 110-decibel wind turbine on town property.

The Falmouth Select Board is working with state officials at the Massachusetts Clean Water Trust to again take the safety and health of Falmouth residents.

Section 1605 of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA) included a "buy America" provision which should have disqualified Danish-made Vestas V-82 type 1.65 megawatt wind turbine from construction in Falmouth. Falmouth Wind II should never have been installed in the first place.

Falmouth and MTC aka MassCEC were able to obtain a waiver from the provision after General Electric, the only American turbine manufacturer, refused to site turbines so close to occupied structures, roads, property lines, and public access areas

Mr. Gerald Potamis

RE: Falmouth WWTF Wind Energy Facility II "Wind II", Falmouth, MA Contract No. #3297

Dear Mr. Potamis,

"Due to the sound concerns regarding the first wind turbine installed at the wastewater treatment facility, the manufacturer of the turbines, Vestas, is keen for the Town of Falmouth to understand the possible noise and other risks associated with the installation of the second wind turbine. The Town has previously been provided with the Octave Band Data / Sound performance for the V82 turbine. This shows that the turbine normally operates at 103.2dB but the manufacturer has also stated that it may produce up to 110dB under certain circumstances. These measurements are based on IEC standards for sound measurement which is calculated at a height of 10m above of the base of the turbine."

Falmouth Select Board Member Doug Jones brought up the 5 million dollars loan/grant at the town wind turbine meeting October 15, 2018. You can see his comment 38 minutes into the video:

Select Board Member Doug Jones; "Second point to make is if we relocate Wind II the likelihood that our 5 million dollar grant stays as a grant is very high as opposed to it turning into a loan that we have to repay. So there is also that additional 5 million dollar that does enter into the calculations of what we do with Wind II."
