The whole region here lies on a bed of Leda clay of varying depth. I understand that engineers have studied the risks involved in establishing this kind of structures ... elsewhere in the world and from computer models. But ordinary folks here will tell you about some of the difficulties they've had with silos of not even half the height or a quarter of the weight that these IWTs will have. We should not have faith or trust the official conclusions that no risks are involved. This whole area is known to be subject to landslides on a regular basis and it has been on-going for over a century as recorded in geological annals. Not enough caution is being afforded here, especially with T4 and T5, on a deeper bed of clay. Why not push them further elsewhere?
