Good day:

As you know, we informed the membership earlier today that a summary report of Health Canada’s wind turbine noise study (also called the community noise study) was to be released this morning.

We intend to undertake a detailed study of this summary report, together with information we hope to get at a meeting with Health Canada, and prepare a formal response.

However, as of this morning, we can say that we are very disappointed in the summary of results, that we have deep concerns about the methodology and conclusions and that, finally, these results do not reconcile with either the experience of Ontario communities, or other peer-reviewed research.

You may view the study summary report here: http://www.hc-sc.gc.ca/ewh-semt/noise-bruit/turbine-eoliennes/index-eng.php
