A con artist trying to get the money it believes it is entitled to will say anything to get its money. In this case a wind company agreed to a mountain road width and is now acting surprised that turbine maintenance is required and that the giant cranes require far wider roads!

Feb. 20, 2009 ISO-NE question to CMP about MPRP :

Q. What percentage of this Project, if any, can be attributed solely for generation

of MPRP to accommodate the addition of wind generation resources, but no portion of

the project was modified as a…

Let's see how this goes. The wind industry's rigged polls tell us a majority of people like wind power. Yet greater than 90% of votes on moratoriums in Maine towns go against wind. In other words, when people stop to study the issue, they quickly see that wind is nothing but a fraudulent house of cards harmful to human health, the environment and the economy. Or as the wind industry itself has privately…

  The term "installed capacity" refers to the amount of power an industrial wind facility would produce under ideal wind conditions; but such ideal wind conditions rarely (if ever) occur.    

  Wind Farm Proposal and Permits usually refer to the ratio of actual power to be produced compared to this production ideal as "an expected capacity…

LETTER

After reviewing the Department of Environmental Protection analysis of the Bingham wind project, I felt like the state was being bought out by First Wind to put in the largest wind farm in the state.

The project will permanently affect four separate deer wintering areas, with a total of 21.54 acres. First Wind proposed to minimize the impact of one deer wintering area by using single pole structures in a 21-foot-wide…

Listen today LIVE at EUT work session discussion on LD 1750, An Act to "amend  the administrative procedure and to clarify Maine wind energy law".

The EUT committee can  postpone, table, adjourn - but the fight  never  stops  and  more and  more  people  are aware of the game this committee has been playing ignoring the grievances  of Maine citizens regarding  industrial  wind power and failing to answer specific questions concerning  the false  premises and promises of wind…

EXCERPT:

LePage implored the Legislature to do more to help Mainers, and to invest in growing technologies and energy sources, including heat pumps and natural gas, that both help families save money, and attract businesses by making the energy market in Maine more competitive.

“This bill died because the Natural Resource Council of Maine didn’t want revenues to go help Maine people, they wanted it to go buy land,” LePage said. “I find that scandalous.”…

House panel subpoenas Obama administration over wind farm eagle deaths

EXCERPTS:

The House Natural Resources Committee issued the subpoena Tuesday as part of a 10-month investigation into the enforcement policies and practices of the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service and the Justice Department, a news release said.

An Associated Press investigation exposed how the Obama administration was failing to enforce the law for wind power, even as it…

Every wind turbine contributes to global warming, so thanks to all those politicians who have given us our expensive, mountain-destroying, unreliable wind power.
