“National Grid are using the presence of one pylon line to justify a second. It is well known that the Secretary of State is discussing the possibility of further reactors at Wylfa in addition to Wylfa Newydd. If there is no change in Government policy, a second row will be used to justify and third and fourth line. We need a more modern innovative solution to the connection in North Wales.
Pylons will be detrimental to views of unspoilt countryside, particularly views from within, and views of, the Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Tourists reaction will be negative to the permanent scarring of the landscape and the tourism sector will suffer badly as a consequence.
Pylons will be detrimental to may business sectors on Anglesey, to the tourism industry through spoilt, and “industrialised” countryside, to farming due to permanent land loss and restricted practices, to house values, which Nation Grid have not considered, overall both business and personal economies will decline through the effects of installing huge metal towers across the island.
More pylons will be detrimental to Ofgem achieving their principal objective “… to protect the interests of existing and future electricity … consumers”.
There is a significant amount of scientific research into the health effects of pylons, which differs from those which prevailed in the middle part of the last century when the existing pylon run was installed. There are serious concerns, about the health impacts on people and farm animals. There are real concerns around the route of the pylons over areas very high in Radon Gas and how EMF's affect Radons dangerous decay products.
This is a very good reason to avoid installing pylons in favour of a more innovative solution to avoid these risks to health.
Other technology exists, like underground and subsea, which does not have the negative effects of pylons.
Anglesey and Wales are self-sufficient in energy. The pylons will serve mainly to export power to the south east of England, against the wishes of Anglesey people and all levels of democratic representation, this treatment of the islands officials is completely unfair in light of their position in being the collective voice of the islands electorate.
Wales is unique in having a Wellbeing of Future Generations Act, and while National Grid state they are not bound by this law, Isle of Anglesey County Council is, and more pylons may leave the authority open to legal challenge. Pylons will be an ugly and legacy for future generations.
The consultation was ineffective and not carried out in good faith, as National Grid had already published their plans before it commenced, and the only statutory consultation did not consider any other options.
NGET and Horizon have not followed the guidance in The Planning Act 2008, and at no point has the genuine cumulative impact been assessed or consulted on.
