<strong>GLENLORA</strong> <strong>WIND</strong> <strong>TURBINE</strong><br />

It is anticipated that the adoption of best practice management and control<br />

procedures by all site personnel and the implementation of the mitigation methods<br />

proposed will bring the risks of impact on water quality down to acceptable levels.<br />

3.8 Existing Infrastructure, Telecommunications, Television, Aviation<br />

and Electromagnetic Safety<br />

Introduction<br />

Possible effects on telecommunications activities and television reception were<br />

assessed. This is necessary as wind turbines can interfere with any communications<br />

networks utilising electromagnetic signals, in common with all structures of that size.<br />

By their nature, wind turbines have the potential for being a significant physical<br />

obstruction that could affect aviation activities.<br />

Impacts, Issues and Mitigating Actions<br />

Issues requiring mitigation are discussed below and summarised in Table 3.8.1, p23.<br />

Summary and Conclusions<br />

For the wind turbine at Glenlora Estate to have a disruptive effect on civil or military<br />

air operations/safeguarding, telecommunications or television service could be<br />

unacceptable. If the mitigating actions suggested are taken, then no unacceptable<br />

degradation of telecommunications or television services is expected from the<br />

building of the proposed wind turbine.<br />
