Town of Portsmouth : Failure To Do Due Diligence Again !
The Portsmouth Town Water Tank may need to be moved because of wind turbine.
How much will it cost to move the water tank ? The broken 70 ton AAER commercial wind turbine is within a few hundred feet of the town water tank.
The town water tank itself is 47 feet tall. The blades of the turbine weigh 7 tons each. The water tank is the main source of water in Portsmouth.
Many large turbine manufacturers have their own safety setbacks for ice throw, noise ,shadow flicker and blade throw. AAER guaranteed there would be less than 1 percent of a chance of damage to the water tank. The larger wind companies like Furhlander, General Electric and Vestas would never have built a megawatt turbine next the Portsmouth Town Water Tank !
Portsmouth is only interested in getting the wind turbine spinning again.
The Portsmouth Economic Development Committee asks where were all these people back in 2007 before the turbine was built ? Ask : Would they build a commercial wind turbine this close to the town water tank in 2014 knowing the dangers of commercial wind ?
You need to ask your representatives : Today would any large turbine company like GE or Vestas ever placed a commercial wind turbine this close to a towns main source of water ? Folks - These questions need to be asked the Portsmouth Town Council has been meeting in Executive Session for two years and the setback question to the town water tank needs an answer .The facts can't be ignored
