Daniel d'Entremont and his family moved out of their house in February 2006, and moved in with d'Entremont's in-laws about half an hour away. He said there are 17 turbines near his property.

The fisherman personally sent the accompanying pictures on this Web page to illustrate the proximity of the turbines to his home. He said the turbines were installed and running by February 2005.

D'entremont said everyone in his family had trouble sleeping once the turbines began operating. He said he'd sleep four hours, and then a "hum" or "vibration" feeling inside of him would wake him up.

D'Entremont also said low frequency noise from the turbines "ate away" at his family's nerves, that they felt a constant vibration in their chests. During the year they lived next to the turbines, d'Entremont said his youngest two children, a five-year-old and a nine-year-old, "got more aggressive" and developed attention span issues.

D'Entremont said his 19-year-old son who slept in the basement was most exposed to the vibrations from the turbines, because they came up through the cellar. The teen started experiencing vision problems. He said his wife also reported blurry eyesight once the turbines moved in, as if there was a "film over her eyes."
 
Both Carolyn d'Entremont and her son are being tested to determine the cause of their vision problems. Her migraines have also become more frequent.

Since they moved from their home, Daniel d'Entremont said his youngest children's teachers commented on what a difference they saw in the students at school. He said his 13- and 15-year-old daughters' grades also improved after the move. His five-year-old who "never could sleep" when they lived near the turbines, now sleeps on his own and is "more relaxed."

The home they built back in 1982 stands empty. The land, inherited from earlier generations of d'Entremonts, is now abandoned. Daniel d'Entremont said he doesn't believe his family will ever move back unless the wind farm is totally shut down.
