Turbine Noise Log March 18, 2012
5:05 AM. Last night was filled with sleep deprivation. I went to bed hearing the turbines thumping and pounding and woke up hearing the turbines thumping and pounding. I was woke at 1:03, 2:37, 3:17, and 5:05. Those are the wake ups that I wrote down. I wanted desperately to sleep so I did not look at the clock or write down the many other times I was rudely woke up by the turbines. I wanted to...

4:42 AM. I was woke up by thumping and pounding noise. I had very restless sleep and numerous wake ups last night. It is Saturday. Maybe in your house you “slept in”? I can’t. I am up. I feel exhausted and have a headache on the right side in back of my lower neck.
6:05 AM.I hear thumping and pounding noise as I write about this noise. Yes, I am in the house.

6:10 AM. I spent the night in Beloit. This is my third time at this house and bed. I woke only one time over night. I had great dreams. They were very active and colorful. I feel rested. I sleep well any place, but at home where our house is surrounded by 400’ tall wind turbines.

6:15 AM. Wind W, 17.9 rpms. Jet noise. I lost 8 pounds while away the past 5 nights. I have noticed in the past that on nights I get restful sleep I lose weight and that when there are nights of sleep deprivation I gain weight. There are many more details to this, however thisis the result.
8:30 PM. Wind S. Turbines are turning slow, however are very audible at 1560”.

(at cabin) 5:00 AM. Wind calm. I slept and dreamt great again last night.
10:30 AM. Wind calm. I just finished collecting sap. There is no noise other than the yelping of sand hill cranes, robins chirping, the pounding beaks of wood peckers, the cooing of morning doves and the soft sounds of other song birds. At home those beautiful sounds are both driven away from or covered up by the wind...

4:30 AM. (at cabin) I am up early to begin the day cooking sap. I woke up one time over night due to a cramp in my leg. I do a lot of standing and walking while mapling. I again had a number of dreams that were beautiful, colorful and enjoyable.
5:45 PM. It is so calm and peaceful here at the cabin. I imagine it was that way at home before Invenergy and the PSC of Wisconsin forcibly took that...

6:30 AM. WOW! It was another great night of sleep at the cabin. I had great dreams lastnight. In some of them I was having conversations with people. My dreams have been taken, forcefully taken, from me at home.
Even if the turbines are shut down for part of a night or are turning slow I do not dream. Do you think that could be affecting my health? Would it affect your health? Do you think being...

I slept great again last night. It was windy and the howling was head in the cabin, however it had no affect on my sleep. Apparently the wind does not have in it what ever the turbine noise has in IT. Like the night before I had many dreams which were active and exciting.
9:20 PM. It was a breezy day at the cabin. No ill affects I am feeling great. My ears are hissing more. I feel that is...

5:30 AM. (at cabin) I slept through the night. I don’t think I even woke up over night. I am up early to cook maple sap that I collected yesterday into maple syrup. As usual when I am away from the wind industrial park I had luxurious dreams. Luxurious because it is a luxury due to the reality that at home I can not dream as the turbines have taken my dreams away. My dreams here are very active...

It was a horrible nigh of sleep deprivation. I have 8 times written down. I was woke up by the turbines at 12:03, 1:01, 1:28, 2:22, 3:35, 3:47, 4:09 and 4:48. I did not sleep after 4:48. My eyes are a little blurry and I have a headache. I will mention again that in the past I rarely had a headache. They are getting more numerous the more time in the wind factory goes on. I feel exhausted.

6:20 AM. Foggy. I think the turbines are still, still. I do not hear any noise. It is too foggy to see the turbines.
5:35 PM. Wind S, 17.0 rpms. The noise and discomfort is back. Turbine 4 sounds like a jet and turbine 73 is thumping and pounding.
9:45 PM. Wind S, 19.0 rpms. Noise is like the last report, but turbine 4 is a louder jet noise and turbine 73 is thumping and pounding louder.
