This letter written by Princeton Municipal Light Department's (PMLD) General Manager, Brian Allen, offers a candid assessment of the utility's two-turbine (3.0 MW) project. The turbines have failed to live up to expected production levels. The project has also been plagued by technical problems. Rather than reducing rates for customers, the project lost $1.875 million and will continue to lose $600,000 yearly under current circumstances. Excerpts of the letter are provided below.

Senator Chris Back, the Western Australia-Deputy Opposition Whip in the Senate, delivered this important speech concerning the controversy surrounding the impacts of industrial turbines on human health.

Dr. Alec Salt, a expert on human ear physiology at the Cochlear Fluids Research Laboratory of Washington University in St. Louis examined the effect of low-frequency, inaudible sound, on human health. In particular, Dr. Salt investigated the very low frequency sounds and infrasound (below 20 Hz) produced by industrial-scale wind turbines. His paper as presented at the Inter-sound 2012 conference can be accessed by clicking on the link(s) at the bottom of this page.

An Open Letter has been sent to the Prime Minister of Canada and the Minister of Health for Canada exposing numerous insufficient procedures and processes utilized in order for Health Canada to develop a national study into the known and acknowledged adverse health effects from industrial wind installations. The Health Canada study design as published on July 10, 2012 is expected to be concluded in 2014. Concerns are that the design is not crafted thoroughly enough and that the participants are not independent experts. This could produce unscientific results which will have global consequences. Carmen Krogh is one of the world's foremost independent researchers on health impacts of wind turbines and author of the attached letter.
