Guernsey Elecricity told neighbour 'you're the only one complaining about noise'

A POWER station neighbour has claimed Guernsey Electricity failed to take notice of his concerns, telling him that he was the only one complaining about noise.

Vale deputy Mary Lowe, who is acting as spokeswoman for residents affected by noise nuisance, from the power station said following recent media attention she had been called by another neighbour.

The neighbour, she said, did not want to be identified but had said he was told he was alone in complaining.

Deputy Lowe said he was shocked when he found out others had also raised concerns. 'He also lives in the area,' she said. 'He was told he was the only one.'

In response to Deputy Lowe's claims the resident was told he was the only one, the utility said: 'Up until this summer we were working with only one resident in terms of noise from the power station. However, following the recent media attention this is now a wider issue.'
