Memorial Day Fairhaven & Falmouth Massachusetts

State & Local Officials used Memorial Day to Hide Wind Turbine Construction

Remember the Massachusetts wind turbine victims on Memorial Day

The Massachusetts Democratic Party Platform has declared an actual war on fossil fuels. The party has prioritized its attention and action on the scale equivalent to a major war. The decision has been made to take immediate action at all levels of government.

Massachusetts has a renewable energy goal of 2000 megawatts of renewable energy by the year 2020.

There is a war brewing in American over commercial wind turbines that, in times past, could not have been predicted or imagined. This is a war that involves the invasion of American's rights and freedoms and will, if allowed to continue unabated, lead to the destruction of the U.S. Constitution as well as our democracy.

Investigative journalists should understand that their reckless ignorance of wind turbine victims rights could have an adverse effect on this nation's Constitutional right of the freedom of speech as exercised by its journalistic community.

There are those who are not afraid to expose serious government abuses.

On Veterans Day ,November 14, 2011 the Town of Fairhaven and wind turbine contractors used that day to start construction of two massive megawatt wind turbines. The work continued through the Veterans Day weekend to clear land. The abutters to the wind turbine site were taken by surprise with no formal warning. Where was the respect for all the Veterans on this weekend ?

The common problem with commercial wind turbines is the two types of noise described in a wind turbine study done for the Town of Mattapoisett in 2005. The reference to the two distinct types of noise was dropped in order to build the Falmouth wind turbines in 2010. State officials were aware of noise issues in 2005. No turbines were ever built in Mattapoisett because of the reference to the two types of noise.

Residents of Falmouth & Fairhaven in order to file a noise complaint against the turbines had to fill out special written certified noise complaints which had to be documented by local town officials. The state felt that people would huff and puff and just go away. Today, Massachusetts is faced with thousands of certified noise complaints.

For the last four years state and local boards of health officials have ignored the documented noise complaints. They have taken no action.

The Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection has found the turbines out of state noise regulations and has taken no action.

The war on fossil fuels declared by the Massachusetts Democratic Party Platform is ongoing. Laws and regulations are being ignored that effect the wind turbine victims around the wind turbines. These victims are viewed as collateral damage in the war on fossil fuels.

The general public has been conditioned over the past years to expect the abutters of the wind turbines to sacrifice their health and constitutional property rights so the rest of us can breathe clean air.

Massachusetts officials in the executive branch of government have used obfuscation as a method to stop the thousands of wind turbine noise complaints. Massachusetts appointed wind turbine advocates to conduct a state wind turbine study with a predetermined conclusion.

The Massachusetts Clean Energy Center is now paying the Town of Falmouth up to 1.8 million dollars to pay court costs of the wind turbines against the wind turbine victims.

How much longer can local residents fight for their health and rights without resources.

The war continues in Falmouth with the town filing lawsuit after lawsuit against itself.

Folks, The wind turbine victims in Massachusetts are veterans of the actual war declared by the Massachusetts Democratic Party Platform. These people are not dead but are and have been wounded by the poor placement of commercial wind turbines.

Ed & Sue Hobart of Falmouth put up a brave fight against the wind turbines. The cost of litigation, health and noise from the turbines caused them to give up their dream home on six acres of land in Falmouth.

They are the real heroes today.

On this Memorial Day I ask you all to remember all the victims of the wind turbines and the ongoing war on fossil fuels.

Remember NIMBY used to mean "not in my back yard." Today it means "next it could be you. "
