I wish to object to this ScottishPower Renewables planning applicationfor the following reasons: Use of unspoilt countryside at Friston for substation complexes the size of Wembley Stadium Local road network unsuitable for the high traffic levels and more HGVs Unsuitability of Thorpeness Cliffs as site for landing cables because of their fragility Substations dangerously close and dominating a small village liable to flooding Cable trenches and haul roads too close to residential homes Threat to wildlife and the important Sandlings Heath light sandy soil which blows/runs away, causing visibility hazard and health issues Inevitable delays for Emergency Services endangering lives In the event of a Nuclear incident evacuation routes would be severely hampered Increased traffic on roads, a danger to cyclists and residents Impact on tourism, businesses etc
