The cost of the financial fiasco remains a dirty little secret between the politicians and news media. Here is what they don’t want you to know :

PCB contamination safety and financial fiasco at New Bedford Ocean wind port remain hidden from the voting public

New Bedford, Massachusetts September 7,2014

The Massachusetts Clean Energy Center has to move an antenna from station WNBH-1340 AM Bedford.

The MassCEC wants to move the antenna from the industrial location to a residential neighborhood in New Bedford near Dartmouth. The local residents don't want the antenna and usual like with the commercial wind turbines the MassCEC says it notified all the residents.

That's not all that's going wrong.

PCBs have now been discovered at AM radio site holding up rail link to ocean wind port.

This has never been reported by the news media.

New Bedford Harbor is a Superfund site due to the very nature of the levels of various toxic chemicals including PCBs, lead, arsenic, mercury, chromium, cadmium, barium,etc.

The news of the discovery was tucked in the middle of a Massachusetts Clean Energy file published after August 5, 2014.

The tower location is called the Hall Communications site, Apex engineers discovered approximately 1600 cubic yards of PCB-contaminated soils.

New Bedford Harbor is the most toxic marine environment in world.

Here is what we know:

Hall Communications parcel will provide over 4 acres of high-loading capacity to the Main Terminal Site

Future rail extension to the Terminal Site would need to connect through the Radio Tower parcel

Safety

AM Tower could pose safety hazard between AM signal interacting with large cranes on Terminal site

MassCEC has contacted Hall Communications & EPA about the contamination found on the Hall Site

Contamination believed to be connected to Potomska Mill site and pre-dates Hall Communications’ ownership of the site.

MassCEC is working with Hall to remove the contaminated soils and dispose in out-of-state, EPA-approved facilities in the Fall of 2014

Site will then be capped with at least three feet of clean material similarly to Main Terminal Site

In its second round of investigations of the Hall Communications site, Apex discovered PCB-contaminated soils

Approximately 1,600 cubic yards of contaminated soils

No construction activities currently taking place at the Hall Site

Site is fenced off.
