Chapter 91 hearing set for Cape Wind

Chapter 91 hearing set for Cape Wind
Company seeks to bury two electric cables across tidelands
Another hearing is on tap for Cape Wind, the wind turbine farm proposed for Horseshoe Shoal south of Cape Cod.
Cape Wind Associates has applied for a Chapter 91 permit, which would allow the company to bury two 115-kilovolt cables across tidelands off West Yarmouth. The cables would connect the wind farm to the main power grid that reaches onto the Cape. Chapter 91 is a state law that regulates the use of tidelands.
The state Department of Environmental Protection will conduct the public hearing on the permit application at 6:30 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 5 at Mattacheese Middle School.
People also can submit testimony in writing by 5 p.m. to Alex Strysky, DEP Waterways Regulation Program, One Winter St., 5th Floor, Boston MA 02108 or by e-mail to Alexander.strysky@state.ma.us.
In August, the state approved a water quality certificate for the cables.
The public hearing notice is posted at www.mass.gov/dep/public/hearings/capewind.htm.

Chapter 91 Waterway and Public Protection Act is one of the Commonwealth's oldest and most significant laws that poses a problem for Cape Wind as a "non-water" dependent project.
This is a serious "slight of hand" "reclassification" to "water dependent" by DEP in the middle of this project review. The DEP is reclassifying this project to accommodate a private developer at the expense of the public and the environment due protections under Chapter 91.
The DEP is attempting to rewrite Cape Wind project review history:
"Does the Department consider an underwater cable as being water dependent?"
"(DEP) If it qualifies as an infrastructure crossing facility and the Secretary determines that there is not an alternative, then it’s water dependent. But we determined that it’s not water dependent because it is not bank to bank."
CERTIFICATE OF THE SECRETARY OF ENVIRONMENTAL AFFAIRS ON THE ENVIRONMENTAL NOTIFICATION FORM
"DEP must consider an infrastructure crossing to be non-water dependent (and thus categorically prohibited) under the Waterways Regulations..."

Which one of your Cape Wind friends is telling the truth, Jim Gordon or Mark Rodgers?
Cape Cod Times Sept. '08
"Although no manufacturer has been chosen by Cape Wind, a 3.6-megawatt turbine made by Germany-based Siemens or a 3.0-megawatt turbine made by Denmark's Vestas are being considered, Rodgers said."
“GE Wind Energy is part of one of America’s most successful technology companies, and we’re delighted to have selected GE to provide the wind turbines for the Cape Wind project.” said Jim Gordon, president of Energy Management, Inc."

Hey Smahkcep....have you ever heard of Earl E. Devaney? You would like him.
As far as your substitute boiler nonsense....there is only one other manyfacturer of 3.6MW turbines in the world, Siemens....and they will not sell them in the U.S. Grow up and smell the transformer oil, pal: an order for 130 wind turbines that requires a special tooling of an entire manufacturing facility when you already have orders for THOUSANDS of standard turbines just does not light happy bulb in companies who do billions of dollars annually in other sizes. You are now revealing your complete ignorance of the technical aspects of this project. According to the retired CEO of Raytheon and Dr. Eli Bruckner (designed much of Raytheon's radar fleet) the EXCAT turbine specs must be known for an adequate radar study. You do want an accurate radar study, don't you?
BOOM, BOOM, BOOM. Here come the Gordonistas again. BOOM, BOOM, BOOM.
Turbines? We don't got no turbines...we don't need no stinkin' turbines!

Cape Wind has represented their project will use GE 3.6 MW "discontinued" wind turbines.
Mark states Cape Wind is looking at Vestas and Seimens.
Siemens states they're booked out to 2011 with their 3.6; and they only intend to supply onshore wind turbines to the US.
Vestas CEO states on Cape Wind to the Globe:
"And, therefore, I am really wondering why anybody wants to put them up offshore because it’s twice the price. So just as an outsider, I am just scratching my head saying, “Why?”
Rodney's pointing his finger at USACE
claiming that the GE 3.6 was represented "before 2005", (CCTime's).
But, GE 3.6 MW representation is under Rodney's watch in the MMS draft EIS.
Rodney Cluck must know Earl Devaney who called DOI, in his OIG investigation of MMS, "a culture of ethical failure".

Sorry DARK SIDERS...
The radar consideration is primarily based on the overall 'blade imprint' in case you were...

As I said:

In a nutshell to me the way to go is with windpower- it's obviously the way to go. However, I am extremely wary of the corporate shit that is sure to abound and screw us- as always. That is the main source for my hesitation. And the arguments that have been persisting from both sides are such that someone like me (yes: I do matter) cannot look at this without thinking that Somebody somewhere in this mess is trying to screw us....but which ones and on which side?

As far as who will take an order for 3.6MW turbines...you just do not know what you are talking about. Have you spoken to any manufacturers? I have. You are wrong, just plain wrong. Do your Damn homework, Sparky. One lousy order for $500 million + against a year's production of $14 billion or more...yeah, let's shut everything down, make these 130 units, forget about the other 4,000 that are ordered and kiss Little Jimmy's balance sheet. Makes sense to me.
As for your radar expertise, the two men who attended the radar conference who were the leading figures in radar at Raytheon...you have heard of Raytheon?...both said that an exact equipment specification and array is necessary for an accurate radar study. But, of course, you know more than they do. Right?
How can such a nice guy as you be such a dope?
Did you know that Rodney Cluck's PhD is in sociology? What a joke...and environmental sociologist. Like, wow....

Here is something I find very interesting: the project manger for the MMS review of the Cape Wind application is Rodney E. Cluck, PhD. His doctorate is from Mississippi State University in Sociology, and his masters was also in sociology from the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville. Prior to being in charge of analyzing Jim Gordon's dreams he was doing work at MMS in environmental sociology. I guess this means he is mainly a facilitator ...someone whose job it is to get us all to hold hands and chant...then reach 'consensus'. To hell with laws, rules, truthful specifications or any of that real world crap that stands of the way of real energy progress and more millions for Gordon. he wants us to feel good about renewable energy.
And, for those who would care to read the papers to which he contributed in the late 1990s for the Rural Sociology Society, he rails against the urban and the wealthy. Do I hear NIMBY?
Yup, a real intellectual heavyweight is our boy Rodney...and such stunning technical expertise. Can Oprah Winnfrey be far behind?
Devaney's graduate degree is in law. Oh!

Of course there is a problem with this....wind farms are not dependent on water but on wind AND....no one will sell Cape Wind the turbines they have specified. Two companies only have manufactured the 3.6MW turbine Cape Wind specified to Minerals Management Service (section 2.1.1)---GE and Siemens. GE discontinued their model 3.6s in 2006....2006! And Siemens will not sell theirs in the U.S.
Oh GEE! It looks like Jim Gordon has misinformed us, again. When will the bull stop? Then there is the radar issue...two retired pros from Raytheon telling Cape Wind's English radar "expert" that he is full of...well... clutter.
Does anyone out there recognize this name....Earl E. Devaney? If you do not, ask J. Steven Griles or Julie McDonald.
I think Griles is out of jail now and McDonald is back on the farm in California. They know Devaney (or he knows them) very well. Could Gordon be next?
