Dear Examining Authority, RE: EAST ANGLIA ONE NORTH I wish to object to this ScottishPower Renewables planning application, for the following reasons: - Use of unspoilt countryside at Friston for substation complexes the size of Wembley Stadium - 11Km of cable trenches,destroying environmentally sensitive areas - Cable trenches and haul roads too close to residential homes. - Threat to wildlife and the important Sandlings Heath - Destruction of ancient woodland - Noise pollution. Suffolk’s famous peace and tranquillity lost - Air pollution from traffic and trenches dug through Suffolk’s light sandy soil which blows/runs away, causing visibility hazard and health issues - In event of a Nuclear incident the evacuation routes would be severely hampered - Impact on tourism. DMO report says traffic congestion and related issues would deter tourists fromcoming to the area Best wishes, Alex
