Martha's Vineyard Freight Service To New Bedford

Martha's Vineyard Freight Service To New Bedford

Folks the signs are up. A local Democratic Falmouth citizens group is placing signs all over Falmouth. The signs say: " It Is Time To Think New Bedford. "

 The signs are all up and down Woods Hole Road, Falmouth, Massachusetts.

The residents of Woods Hole have been asking the Patrick administration to find a way to stop the noise from trucks 24/7 through the prestigious neighborhoods to the Woods Hole Terminal.

 The New Bedford ocean wind turbine port now appears to be a parting gift from Governor Patrick to the affluent Woods Hole residents making New Bedford the freight port to the Islands. No more noise.

The plan for the New Bedford ocean wind port was from day one the plan of the executive branch of state government to become the freight port to Martha's Vineyard using unregulated renewable energy funds.

Questions abound in the aftermath of the New Bedford Marine Commerce Terminal ocean wind turbine port fiasco this week. Many citizens feel the New Bedford ocean port was really built with Massachusetts renewable energy funds to be the freight terminal from New Bedford to Martha's Vineyard.

The taxpayers of Massachusetts need answers about the finances and bonding of the New Bedford Marine Commerce Terminal. The ocean wind port is going to be a 200 million dollar freight port. All signs point to it including all the signs along the roads in Falmouth.

Cape Wind has never had a federal permit to construct commercial wind turbines from New Bedford.

The 2009 BOEM, Bureau of Ocean Management allows only three maintenance boats in New Bedford Harbor.

Officials from the Executive Office of Governor Patrick testified to legislative bonding committees and the news media in 2013 that they were sure Cape Wind would construct their wind turbines from New Bedford Harbor at the new ocean marine commerce terminal. They were convinced even though there was NO federal permits ?

After a ten year review Cape Wind was between 2009 and 2010 issued a federal permit to build its turbines from Quonset Point, Rhode Island.

Cape Wind has never filed a project revision with BOEM. Cape Wind has signed a lease with Quonset Point, Rhode Island Did Cape Wind promise the officials from the Executive Office of Governor Patrick they would use New Bedford & file a project revision ?

Taxpayers need to be made aware of the financial fiasco going on in New Bedford. Who, What, When, Where ,Why and How .

Meanwhile welcome to the new freight port in New Bed
