This is especially harmful to people suffering from autism. I object to the huge destruction caused by the putting in of the numerous roadways to access these turbines. They are harmful to wildlife and the devastation of large areas of land. The vast amounts of concrete used as a base for each turbine will cause contamination for hundreds of years to the surrounding land and water. Our water supply comes from Ballymanus Hill along with many of our neighbours and this will be contaminated now and for future generations.

This beautiful area would be disfigured by wind turbines on Radnagh Hill.
For posterity the recognised 'landmark' on the R753 would become these enormous wind turbines - image!
Travelling through Aughrim to Tinahely eyes would be transfixed on turbines instead of on the beauty of a changeable sky behind the outline of the majestic Radnagh Hill.
This is a rugged terrain that must be preserved for both visitors and residents.

I have been kept in the dark as too regards any studies that have been conducted to state how they will benefit the area and what affect it will have on the flora and fauna aswell as humans in my locality. i am especially concerned about the flicker as i am directly looking across at the ones in Killaduff and the sun sets behind these so the flicker will be extremely bad in our house. i am also concerned about the noise levels as i have two young children. They will have a strong impact on the lovely view of croghan and ballymanus hill from my home.
