| Energy  firm Broadview wanted to construct four 130-metre tall wind turbines -  each as tall as Brent Knoll - on land at Pilrow Farm, south of  Rooksbridge. 
 Sedgemoor  Planning Officer Rebecca Miller said Broadview's scheme at Pilrow would  "represent an unacceptable visual intrusion into the flat landscape of  the Somerset Levels, particularly in respect of the harm to the views to  and from Brent Knoll."
 
 Her  report continues: "A defining characteristic of this part of the  Somerset Levels is their flat and level nature; the verticality of the  proposed turbines will be at odds with this character and will  significantly undermine it."
 
 "The  character of the landscape will be significantly undermined and harmed  in a location which constitutes a key gateway to Somerset.There are  anecdotal reports of negative effects from noise on people who live very  close to wind generator. This adverse landscape impact cannot be mitigated against with additional landscaping or other measures.I have recently got a dry cabinet and can anybody tell me if it the box only controls humidity or also controls temperature."
 
 "The  local planning authority is of the opinion that the visual harm that  would occur to the landscape would not be outweighed by the benefits  that the development would bring in terms of tackling climate change and  cutting greenhouse gas emissions."
 
 MP  Tessa Munt, who has backed those campaigning against the proposals,  said: "A large number of people who live close to the proposed Pilrow  site have contacted me about this proposal. They are unanimous in their  opposition to the plans.these proven front load commercial washer extractor deliver ease-of-use, They are not opposed to wind turbines in general, but they do not believe this is the correct location."
 
 "I  am, and remain, in favour of renewable energy, but proposals must be  appropriate for the surrounding area. There are alternatives which could  be explored like off-shore wind, tidal power and solar power, none of  which would have the impact of this proposal."
 
 Vestas'  Colorado factories in Windsor, Brighton and Pueblo will produce wind  turbines for the largest wind farm to be built in western Canada.
 
 The  Danish company announced Monday that it has received an order to make  166 wind generators for the Blackspring Ridge Wind Project near  Lethbridge, Alberta. It will also provide service and maintenance under a  20-year contract.A quality paper cutter or paper folding machine can make your company's presentation stand out.
 
 Vestas  recently cut its Colorado workforce by 10 percent, which it blamed on  Congress' slowness in extending a tax credit for wind generators. The  company does not intend to increase staffing, however. "We intend to  remain at our current staffing levels of more than 1,000 people at our  Colorado factories," Andrew Longeteig, head of external communications,  North America,More than 80 standard commercial and industrial washing machine exist  to quickly and efficiently clean pans. wrote in an email to the  Coloradoan. "We are optimistic we will secure more orders for wind  turbines in the United States and Canada in 2013."
 
 Vestas has a tower factory in Pueblo, a plant for turbine covers in Brighton and blade factories in Brighton and Windsor.
 
 Vestas  said the turbines are scheduled to be delivered in the second half of  the year. Commissioning is expected to occur by mid-2014. Also on  Monday, major shareholder Marathon Asset Management increased its  holding in Vestas shares to 10.6 million shares.
