I was appalled by the state Department of Health Services' presentation at the May 25 meeting of Brown County Health/ Safety committees: "There is not sufficient evidence to conclude causal or associated link between wind turbines and health outcomes."


GREENLEAF - I was appalled by the state Department of Health Services' presentation at the May 25 meeting of Brown County Health/ Safety committees: "There is not sufficient evidence to conclude causal or associated link between wind turbines and health outcomes."

This carefully worded statement dismissed the World Health Organization's "Night Noise Guidelines for Europe" because two studies cited were about airport noise. Industrial wind turbine project residents complain of noise, sleep disturbance and health problems. Which part of the word noise doesn't the state understand?

Noise is measurable and comparable. Noise exposure should be severely limited!
