What can the company do, or has it done in the past in regards to its energy projects, to mitigate noise, sight, and air disturbances?
All Invenergy projects are designed to meet all applicable ordinances and regulations related to noise, sight and air. The CREC has been designed with extensive noise mitigation to meet the A-weighted noise limit in the Burrillville Town Ordinance at the nearest residences. The CREC has been sited to minimize visual impacts by maintaining surrounding wooded buffer areas. As detailed in Section 6.12 of Invenergy’s EFSB Application, less than one percent of the five-mile area surrounding the facility will be able to see it. The CREC has been designed with state-of-the-art emission controls and will comply with all applicable local, state and federal air pollution control regulations and air quality standards during its operation.
