Clay soil: The land within…

Clay soil: The land within the project area includes quick sand, unstable silt and Leda clay. These are things that could damage the n, given that more than 600 residents live within the identified 2 km radius of turbines. Stray Voltage: Electrical stray voltage is one problem identified in the ''Technical Guide to Renewable Energy Approvals''. What specific plans do you have to address any problems which may arise, especially if the only change in the area is the introduction of an Industrial Wind Turbine Project? Construction: In the construction phase, dust, dirt, noise and vibration will be released into the atmosphere and affect abutting landowners and the community. How will this be controlled, monitored and compensated? Noise: You claim to be a good corporate citizen and want to do well by this community. Then, according to your Noise Assessment report, why are you opting to use the transitional noise rules that were proposed in August 2015 and enacted in May 2016 in O.Reg.359/09? The new noise compliance requirements are more stringent and would provide greater protection for people living close to turbines. Why not apply these requirements to protect the citizens from future health outcomes? If the new noise compliance requirements would be applied, half of the turbines could not be implanted in this area. Ice: In order to keep turbine blades free of ice build-up, will RES use de-icing chemicals? How will it be applied and how will its dispersion in the wind, soil or water and to neighboring properties be monitored and mitigated? Given the frequent winter incidence of ice rain, there is a high risk to people and vehicles traveling within the ''ice fling range''. The major Ice Storm of 1998 crumpled infrastructures and hydro towers in this area. Injury could possibly happen to citizens living in the area or those just traveling by, not to mention the damage it could do to the properties near-by. Property value: With that project in the community, properties value will surely go down. In the case that it does and the properties become ''unsaleable'' will the citizens receive compensation? What about house insurance, they will possibly go up because of the danger of damages that could be done to the properties. Decommissioning: Who will be responsible for clean-up and decommissioning of lubricants, coolants, petrochemicals and other contaminants upon decommissioning? Who will pay for all that, '' the municipality citizens''? What happens to the buried cables, concrete or other materials during the decommissioning phase to ensure there is non leaching or other negative effects over time? In the event that the project is sold or the company goes bankrupt over the 20 year period, what assurances do we have that your promises will be kept.
