Wethersfield turbines going up
Wethersfield is actually a continuation of the Eagle project, which is consuming the two adjoining towns almost in their entirety. It’s unbelievable that this could happen in such a populated area of NY (compared to the Tug Hill region, for instance). The total for this project will be around 160 turbines, but it’s not ending there. Plans are in the works to expand further into Orangeville, Sheldon, Centerville, and Farmersville — the towns that border to the . . .

Mid-Devon’s Den Brook wind farm saga has been going on for more than 4 years now. Our Judicial Review team are appalled by what they’ve recently discovered and are more than ever determined to try and achieve another important precedent to assist all who are, or who are likely to be, affected by wind turbine noise.
