Residents seek info on wind power project
According to a resident on Bryant Mountain in Milton, seeing wind turbines when he looks across to Chamberlain Mountain is going to be an ugly sight.

The public is invited to testify at this hearing regarding Milton Township's petition to be removed from the Expedited Permitting Area, otherwise known as a totally bogus and arbitrarily created area designed by wind developers and championed by Gov John Baldacci who is now vice chairman of Iberdrola's wind division, the second largest in the nation. (A disgrace that Maine's media refuses to report. Truly despicable).
Please attend and be heard, lest our state and frankly, our republic, die a death by 1,000 cuts,
FIGHT. RAGE. GIVE THEM NO QUARTER.
Nothing illegal of course, but they need to feel the anger and emotion. Overly polite communicates SHEEP.
And that we are not.

I compiled this short video from Advertisements on "Forest Mowers" after doing the 5½ video of the newly seated BioMass Commission.
This is about a 17 minute view of the types of "JOBS" that the forest industry got from Wind.... well at the Bingham Project, by the looks of the many piles of chips that were gathered in piles then removed.
Think and contemplate on this a bit. More of this is on the way for other reasons as well.

Thanks to all who speak on behalf of MIlton Township's petition for removal from the expedited area. I sent comments but am in northern Maine getting four hundred bales of hay into the barn. Thank you for recording this, Eric Tuttle.

I'm sorry I can't make it. Thank you so much Eric Tuttle for recording it. Thank you for working your tail off to keep the developers, I mean destroyers, honest. Or at least to have solid evidence when they lie.

unreasonable adverse effect for the state to meet wind energy requirement goals.
Carthage ME won the ownership of the contested Saddleback Ridge top = twelve more turbines. Rumford ME voted to drop ordinance and go with DEP standards = multiple turbines
Roxbury ME will host more for sure.
Dixfield ME can host twelve more.
Canton ME broke ground this summer....twelve more?
so this expedition is not necessary.

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.
