RE: EAST ANGLIA NORTH ONE I wish to object to this ScottishPower Renewables planning application, for the following reasons:- . cumulative impact on local communities of up to 7 energy projects occurring consecutively over 12 to 15 years . unsuitability and fragility of Thorpeness Cliffs as site for landing cables . use of unspoilt countryside at Friston for substation complexes the size of Wembley Stadium . substations, cable trenches and haul roads dangerously close to residential homes . threat to wildlife and the important Sandlings Heath .destruction of ancient woodland local road network unsuitable for the high traffic levels and increased traffic on roads, a danger to cyclists and residents . light pollution. Suffolk's famous dark skies lost . noise pollution. Suffolk's famous peace and tranquility lost . air pollution from traffic and trenches . impact on tourism. Loss of natural beauty and congestion will deter tourists . permanent and temporary closure of PRoWs (footpaths, bridleways, byways and cycle paths) . in event of nuclear incident the evacuation routes would be severely hampered
