Wind energy causes pain to some Shallowater ears
The price of progress is now considered a pain to some ears in Shallowater. Some folks there are upset about the new wind energy turbines now being used by Shallowater ISD.
The school district turned them on back in January. They’re meant to save tax dollars, but some say the by-product, sound, is too much.
Chad Dugger, a resident in the area says, “I can hear them when they turn off and turn back on. It’s not too much fun living here anymore.”
The wind turbine is less than 300 feet from Dugger’s back yard.
