The June board meeting of the
Huron County Federation of
Agriculture had the directors
discussing the current debate around
wind turbine developments.
In the end, two motions were
supported by the Board. The first
one was that HCFA supports an
epidemiological study conducted
into the health impacts of the
specific infrastructure of wind
energy projects on residents living
near such developments.
The second reads that HCFA
requests lower tier municipalities in
Huron to enact a moratorium on
commercial wind energy projects
pending results of an
epidemiological study conducted
into the health impacts of the
specific infrastructure on residents
living near such developments.
“We will be corresponding with
the Lower Tier Municipal Councils
shortly,” reports Wayne Black,
Huron Federation president.
The discussion on this topic, was
also debated by The Ontario
Federation of Agriculture at their
June Board meeting, where they
supported a call from the Bruce
Federation “urging county
federations, where they see it
necessary, to seek a moratorium on
wind energy projects with local
governments pending results of an
epidemiological study conducted
into the health impacts of the
specific infrastructure on residents
living near such developments.”
In March of this year, the Huron
Federation sent a resolution to OFA
regarding the study of potential
health impacts of turbine
developments.
“The follow-up review of
literature done by OFA, as well as
meeting with concerned members in
Huron East, along with the request
from Bruce Federation, resulted in
our board supporting these two
current motions” added Black.
