"Steve Coleman, a winemaker from Waubra in western Victoria, lives in the shadow of a wind farm and says the turbines produce several different noises. "This doof-doof noise, usually we get that when the wind's coming from the south-east because that's the closest turbines to us," he said. "But the ones that are two kilometres away, we get this constant jet rumble, which is almost like a jet rumble-cum-washing machine situation. That doosha-doosha (sound)."
Many of the Senate submissions were about the impact of these noises on people's quality of life. Some doctors reported wind farms can produce an almost inaudible low frequency noise known as infrasound, which in turn contributes to what is known as wind turbine syndrome. Symptoms include high blood pressure, headaches and depression."
