Madam, – You report that Donegal residents object to overhead power lines (Home News, June 14th). On the same page, residents in Rush are objecting to underground power lines! Who would be a planner in Eirgrid!
How exactly do people think electricity is transmitted? No doubt these objectors will all deny being NIMBYs and will demand that large sums of money be spent on objections and appeals that will delay and add costs on to infrastructure projects that are for the benefit of everyone living and working on this island. – Yours, etc,
