Wind power company
buries power dines
Suncor and Acciona, owners of the Ripley
Wind Power Project, have just finished
burying the wires between the wind farm
and the local distribution system, as well as
all overhead lines near Concession
6/Sideroad 30 and Concession 4/Sideroad
25. A letter from the wind power company
discussing the buried power lines was sent to
Huron -Kinloss Twp. council.
Paul Austin, community relations manag-
er of Acciona Wind Energy Canada, states in
the letter the work was being done as an
industry best practice and will separate all
common "neutral" wires between the two
systems in the event of outages/anomalies
related to electrical storms or systemic fail-
ures.
Acciona and Suncor have conducted thor-
ough studies of the wind f ann to determine
if electromagnetic fields or power quality
might be linked to the health concerns
reported to the township by area residents.
"We have not been abbe to confirm that such
a link exists," said Austin.
"However, by burying the lines and :vers,
this removes the basis for inceptions
about the collector system that people may
have had, said Austin. "The systems will
now be separate. Reasonably, the engineer-
ing . enhancement could provide peace of
mind to those who have had concerns, and if
so, we would welcome that outcome as
well."
"We consider our relationship with the
Ripley community • to be for the long-term
and one that should be mutually beneficial,"
writes Austin. "It is our hope to continue to
find ways to improve and enhance the oper-
ations of the Ripley Wind Power Project,
and ensure our stakeholders' concerns con-
tinue to be heard. We - will work toward
keeping the lines of communication open
while producing clean energy to power
24,000 Ontario homes and displace the
equivalent of 66,000 tonnes of carbon diox-
ide per year."
Earlier this year, residents of the area near
the wires and overhead lines, came to the
township complaining of major health con-
cerns, such as severe headaches, and asking
for council's help in dealing with the owner
of the wind farm.
Mayor Mitch Twolan agreed that • it's a
good idea for Acciona Energy to address the
health concerns of the area residents.
County speed limit changes
The Bruce County Highways Department
has adjusted two speed limit zones within
the township.
The 50 km speed zone on `Hwy 86 in
Lucknow has been extended 100 names east
of Washington Street to include the
entrances for Cliff's Plumbing & Heating,
Hamilton Fuels Ltd. and J.A. Porters.
A 70 km speed litnit has been established
on Bruce Road 1 at the intersection of Bruce
Road 6 (Holyrood Comer)
Whitechurch Hall ` Board
The Whitechurch Hall Board has been
operating the Whitechurch Hall for many
years and the board is pursuing an interest in
creating a not-for-profit "Friends of
Whitechurch Hall" corporation.
Huron -Kinloss 'Avp. staff commented that
the initiative will serve notice that the local
community is very keen to preserve the hall
and in doing so a not-for-profit organization
will qualify for many funding opportunities.
The Whitechuneh Hall board wanted to
make council aware of their intentions and
have requested some staff:: resources from
time -to -time.
Pound keeper
Huron -Kinloss gip: staff received a letter
of resignation from Fred Henderson as a
pound keeper.
Henderson noted to clerk Sonya Watson
he is resigning due to. the fact that he no
longer has 'water or feed in his barn.
Currently James Irwin and Don Murray
serve as pound keepers for the township but
are both located in the Kinloss ward.
Watson thinks another pound keeper is
needed in the Huron ward. Council istred
and will look to advertise locally and speci-
fy that it be located in Huron ward.
