Inside rigging keeping wind farm eagle carcasses top secret - eagle carcasses are classified as trade secrets

Should automobile and drug companies be able to conceal human mortality behind trade secret and confidentially laws?   In essence this is exactly how the wind industry operates with turbine mortality.                                                                                                                                                                                                                       The Bogus USFWS Eagle Kill Permit:
 
NOTE the language..........                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            "Use of this form is not mandatory"
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      "2. Information requested in this form is purely voluntary. However, submission of requested information is a condition of your permit under the above laws. Failure to provide all requested information may be sufficient cause for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to revoke your permit. Response is not required unless a currently valid Office of Management and Budget (OMB) control number is displayed on form.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  4.

"Freedom of Information Act – Notice
For organizations, businesses, or individuals operating as a business (i.e., permittees not covered by the Privacy Act), we request that you identify any information that should be considered privileged and confidential business information to allow the Service to meet its responsibilities under FOIA. Confidential business information must be clearly marked "Business Confidential" at the top of the letter or page and each succeeding page and must be accompanied by a non-confidential summary of the confidential information. The non-confidential summary and remaining documents may be made available to the public under FOIA [43 CFR 2.26 – 2.33]."
 
In other words wind facilities are allowed to spell out all the information they wish to remain secret and a FIOA request asking for eagle carcass pertaing to wind farms will not be granted.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             GEE I wonder who wrote up and passed these laws?.............

Maine Center For Public Interest Reporting – Three Part Series: A CRITICAL LOOK AT MAINE’S WIND ACT

******** IF LINKS BELOW DON'T WORK, GOOGLE THEM*********

(excerpts) From Part 1 – On Maine’s Wind Law “Once the committee passed the wind energy bill on to the full House and Senate, lawmakers there didn’t even debate it. They passed it unanimously and with no discussion. House Majority Leader Hannah Pingree, a Democrat from North Haven, says legislators probably didn’t know how many turbines would be constructed in Maine if the law’s goals were met." . – Maine Center for Public Interest Reporting, August 2010 https://www.pinetreewatchdog.org/wind-power-bandwagon-hits-bumps-in-the-road-3/From Part 2 – On Wind and Oil Yet using wind energy doesn’t lower dependence on imported foreign oil. That’s because the majority of imported oil in Maine is used for heating and transportation. And switching our dependence from foreign oil to Maine-produced electricity isn’t likely to happen very soon, says Bartlett. “Right now, people can’t switch to electric cars and heating – if they did, we’d be in trouble.” So was one of the fundamental premises of the task force false, or at least misleading?" https://www.pinetreewatchdog.org/wind-swept-task-force-set-the-rules/From Part 3 – On Wind-Required New Transmission Lines Finally, the building of enormous, high-voltage transmission lines that the regional electricity system operator says are required to move substantial amounts of wind power to markets south of Maine was never even discussed by the task force – an omission that Mills said will come to haunt the state.“If you try to put 2,500 or 3,000 megawatts in northern or eastern Maine – oh, my god, try to build the transmission!” said Mills. “It’s not just the towers, it’s the lines – that’s when I begin to think that the goal is a little farfetched.” https://www.pinetreewatchdog.org/flaws-in-bill-like-skating-with-dull-skates/

Sign up today and lend your voice and presence to the steadily rising tide that will soon sweep the scourge of useless and wretched turbines from our beloved Maine countryside. For many of us, our little pieces of paradise have been hard won. Did the carpetbaggers think they could simply steal them from us?

We have the facts on our side. We have the truth on our side. All we need now is YOU.
