Symptoms Reported by Sick Residents Living Near Wind Turbines

The Waubra Foundation’s CEO responded to the Excessive Noise Bill Senate Inquiry when questioned about the symptoms reported by residents living near wind turbines. November 2012

“As requested by you, I have provided details of the range of symptoms and health problems which have been reported to me by residents living near industrial wind turbines, which the residents and in some instances their treating doctors have told me are new since the wind development commenced operating, and which correlate with exposure to the operating wind development. I have also provided details of those conditions which the residents or their treating doctors have told me worsen with such exposure to operating wind turbines – i.e. the health conditions or symptoms were pre-existing prior to the wind development commencing, but they consistently worsen with exposure and IMPROVE back to baseline when the resident is away from the turbines.”
