Letter from Bev Gray who lives beside Cotton Farm WF
SIR – The visual impact of wind turbines is bad enough. An even bigger problem for local communities, given increasing awareness of how low-frequency noise affects health, is the irregular thumping noise from working turbine blades.
If the Government is to allow further onshore wind-farm developments (Letters, March 5) then all wind farms ought to prove their compliance with the planning approval noise conditions after they are built but before a licence for permanent connection to the national grid is given. All planning approvals should include the mandatory siting of permanent monitoring stations in the local area recording all noise emissions from the site.
