After checking, I found that the land is at close proximity to hugh voltave 500KV - powelines in clyde north, about 230 mtrs away. Need some advise There are some myths or claims without scientific evidence suggesting that living close or under the hugh volatge power lines may increase a risk of lukemia in kids. There are alos some other myths about heart disease and other diseases if you live close to or right below the power lines. Any suggestions are welcome. Thanks for your time!
