East Anglia North One(and East Anglia Two) I object to this ScottishPower Renewables planning application for the following reasons; Cumulative impact on the community of up to 7 energy projects over 12/15 years Use of unspoilt countryside at Friston for huge subsatation sites when Brownfield sites should be used instead. Threat to wildlife and Sandlings Heath Threat to an area of outstanding natural beauty Destruction of ancient woodland Severe problems with overuse of local roads, including significant danger to cyclists who use this area regularly. I have suffered from lorries passing to close, or muck falling off them, often with drivers who dont seem to care at all. Air and light pollution Adverse impact on tourism for many years, numerous businesses could be forced to close. Who wants to visit an area thats like a vast building site, or the roads in the area are dirty from high volumes of lorry usage. This needs to be reconsidered with priority given to the impact on the local environment, planning law should be about people, locally and tourists, not about sanctioning a cheap option when other methods of achieving the same goal are available.
