Dear Examining Authority, RE: EAST ANGLIA NORTH ONE I wish to object to the 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 unspoiled countryside at Friston for substation complexes the size of Wembley Stadium ? 11Km of cable trenches, destroying environmentally sensitive areas and woodlands ? Severing the Suffolk Coast and Heaths AONB causing problems to migrating species and severing the wildlife corridor ? Local road network unsuitable for the high traffic levels and more HGVs ? Light noise air and dust pollution destoying Suffolk’s famous peace and tranquillity ? Increased traffic on roads, a danger to cyclists and residents ? Traffic jams delaying Emergency Services ? The loss of tourism resulting in loss of jobs. Thank you Susan Hawker
