10/05/10 - Confirmed that it was raised at meeting, and if one had an
issue to contact Keith Johnstone at Clackmannanshire Council.
08/07/09 - Arqiva is satisfied that there is sufficient distance between
its links and the proposed turbines.
It requests to be informed of any change of location or additional
turbines.
10/09/08 -The proposed wind farm lies 30km north west from the
Aerodrome Reference Point for Edinburgh Airport. The assessment
shows that the turbines would not be visible to the radars at either
Edinburgh or Glasgow airports. They will be visible to the radar at
Kincardine but this will not have an adverse impact on the safe and
efficient operations of either Edinburgh or Glasgow airports. Therefore
an objection would not be raised.
12/07/10 – The BBC Wind Farm Tool suggests that there is likely
potential for the following transmitters to be affected: Black Hill Ch5,
Craigkelly Ch5, Black Hill and Craigkelly. At this stage it is difficult to
quantity effects until analogue signals are turned off and the digital
switchover is implemented. PfR envisages that digital TV will
dramatically reduce any potential interference with TV signals. It is
proposed that once the turbines are operational if any complaints are
received these would be investigated by an independent engineer to
verify if the turbines are the cause and if so rectify the problem.
08/08/08 - BT concluded that the proposed wind energy development
should not cause interference to its current and presently planned
