    There is a full set of reports here including a template planning condition to control EAM...

    http://www.renewableuk.com/en/publications/reports.cfm

    Only last Friday at a public inquiry a noise expert told everyone it wasn't possible to measure EAM, nor set a limit or draft an acceptable planning condition. What a difference three days makes.

    Almost all the information in the latest RenewablesUK report, published just two days ago, could have been published in April 2012 - only one section is dated after that. The fact that it wasn't is nothing short of a scandal. It calls in to question all acoustic 'expert' evidence regarding EAM, either in written ES's or at hearings, since then.

    Colin, do you have a copy of the recent email from Mike Stigwood on EAM?

    And can you name that expert'? Was it Andy McKenzie, Matthew Cand or Andrew Bullmore by any chance?

    Seems that some in the wind industry have acted a bit like those in the tobacco industry in the 1970-80s. They are very well aware of a problem but are quite prepared to deny it and discredit others who disagree. Absolute scandal as Ted rightly says.
    Even at a Planning Meeting on Tues 17th the Planning Officers were saying that an AM condition was probably unenforceable (12 x 145m turbines) they did have the sense to cover themselves by , I think, saying that if a condition could be drafted it would be. Well now they have one the industry accepts! Interesting to see if it appears in the consent documents.
