Rob Maitland and David Eva, Sprott Power Corporation, addressed Council concerning Staff Report #1 - Report PSD- 035 -13 - Industrial Wind Turbines. Mr. Maitland acknowledged that there has been a request to declare the Municipality of Clarington an "unwilling" host to wind turbines. Through use of a PowerPoint presentation, Mr. Maitland and Mr. Eva addressed various aspects of the report including health concerns and setbacks, compatibility of the project with the Oak Ridges Moraine, economic and environmental benefits associated with wind projects in Clarington and clarified facts related to the ZEP Wind Farm Ganaraska relevant to the recommended action. Mr. Maitland stated that with normal construction mitigation measures and Best Management Practices, no negative environmental impacts are anticipated to the Oak Ridges Moraine critical features and functions. Mr. Maitland highlighted direct and indirect economic benefits associated with wind projects in Clarington including employment, property tax revenue and contributions towards local initiatives over the life of the Ganaraska Wind Farm project. He respectfully requested that Council not declare Clarington an "unwilling host" to wind turbines and that Council reconsider the comments in the Mayor's letter to Premier Kathleen Wynne regarding the specific siting issues with the Ganaraska Wind Farm. Dr. Loren Knopper, Senior Scientist, Intrinsik Environmental Sciences addressed Council concerning Staff Report #1 - Report PSD- 035 -13 - Industrial Wind Turbines with respect to science and public health. Dr. Knopper acknowledged the contribution of Dr. Christopher 011son to tonight's presentation noting that Dr. 011son was not able to attend this evening. Through use of a PowerPoint presentation Dr. Knopper discussed human health, weight of scientific evidence and setbacks. Dr. Knopper stated that while public attitude is generally overwhelmingly in favour of wind energy this does not always translate into acceptance of local projects. He indicated that those opposed point to a number of issues concerning wind turbines including self- reported health effects that a portion of people who live near wind turbines attribute to them. Dr. Knopper stated the reason for the effects of "Wind Turbine Syndrome ", the collection of self- reported symptoms of annoyance, sleep disturbance, tiredness, headache, tinnitus, irritability, nausea and lack of concentration is highly debated. Dr. Knopper stated that overall, the weight of evidence suggests that when sited properly, wind turbines are not directly related to adverse health Council Meeting Minutes - 5 - May 13, 2013 effects and that this opinion is supported by a number of government health and medical agencies. He further stated that he is of the opinion that wind turbine projects operated in accordance with REA will not cause harm to human health. Dr. Knopper also indicated that in Ontario, none of the appeals lodged in opposition to wind turbine projects have been successful. Heather Rutherford addressed Council, on behalf of Clarington Wind Concerns, concerning Staff Report #1 - Report PSD- 035 -13 - Industrial Wind Turbines. Ms. Rutherford thanked Council for their past support of the issues brought forward by Clarington Wind Concerns regarding Industrial Wind Turbines. Ms. Rutherford acknowledged the many residents in the gallery this evening who are requesting that the Municipality declare itself an "unwilling host" to wind turbines. Ms. Rutherford stated that neither the Federal Government nor the Province has conducted studies on distance to determine what a safe distance is and what mitigation measures will be required to ensure wind turbines are safe for the community. She expressed concern that only three health studies were conducted on the health effects of wind turbines and distributed a document to Members of Council providing links to professional bulletins and papers regarding the impairment of health in relation to wind turbines. Ms. Rutherford stated she was disappointed that the Clarington Board of Trade has supported the projects and are not representing the interests of the farming community. Ms. Rutherford questioned how the passing of a resolution to declare Clarington an "unwilling host" will have a tangible impact on the economy of Clarington as the Energy Park is still a concept and there is no promise of revenue. Ms. Rutherford stated she has serious concerns with the process that allows projects to proceed without a full environmental assessment and asked Council for support to declare Clarington an "unwilling host" community for industrial wind turbines until further studies are completed. Randy Tamlin was called but was not in attendance.
