New Bedford Wind Turbine Cargo Ship- Media- Political Corruption Continues

Public betrayal is rampant in the corrupt Bay State. Massachusetts has sustained a recurring parade of criminal and ethical misconduct charges involving public servants and the news media goes along to get along.

New Bedford, Massachusetts

July 15 , 2015

Most of us have realized long ago our politicians will lie to us at the drop of a hat. Many for too long have believed the media is the watchdog of our Democracy. The current media of Massachusetts is controlled by a couple of owners and CEOs. They determine what you read. They decide what news to leave out. They are not going to tell you why a 400 foot plus cargo ship sits anchored at the end of Vineyard Sound for over a week.

The New Bedford Marine Commerce Terminal is all bad news.Especially for taxpayers.

On July 6, 2015 New Bedford Mayor Jon Mitchell, civic leaders and the Massachusetts Clean Energy Center were on scene at the New Bedford Marine Commerce Terminal. They were there to greet the cargo ship MV Thorco Svendborg literally carrying 4 massive wind turbines.

Everyone probably had good intentions and though the turbines could be dropped off at the terminal. Something went wrong. They either couldn’t unload the turbines or the turbines won’t fit through New Bedford to Plymouth or both.

The Hong Kong-based MV Thorco Svendborg was reported to be delivering turbine components to New Bedford for the largest yet ever land-based wind farm in Plymouth. The Plymouth wind farm will consist of four massive Gamesa G97 turbines. The turbines are 25 percent larger than the Fairhaven and Falmouth wind turbines and have a rating of 2 megawatts. The largest to ever be installed in Massachusetts.

The New Bedford Harbor Development Commission was asked where the parts are. They responded that they are covered up in a secure location in the terminal and the public has no access.

The general public can only guess that the news media didn’t take any pictures of the massive blades and poles to hold up the turbines unlikely ! The local press in New Bedford gave up a photo opportunity to show off the massive wind turbines again unlikely. A few small light weight turbine parts were dropped off at the terminal.

What went wrong is the question the public should be asking. Why didn’t the wind turbines get delivered ? Are they going to Providence, Rhode Island because the turbines won’t fit through the narrow densely streets of New Bedford ? Are the cranes too small at the New Bedford Port ?

What is the truth ? The media won’t tell you !

The MV Thorco Svendborg left New Bedford on July 9, 2015.

Since July 9, 2015 the MV Thorco Svendborg has remained anchored for over a week about 20 miles South of Providence, Rhode Island. The marine traffic still has it listed with a destination of New Bedford

The incomplete New Bedford Marine Commerce Terminal sits at 113 million plus dollars with no large 600 ton walking (crawler) cranes and no rail link to the ongoing financial fiasco. The Massachusetts Clean Energy Center will only say the terminal is going into phase two. The terminal was estimated to cost 35 million in 2010.

The New Bedford Marine Commerce Terminal with only a legal opening at the hurricane gates of 120 feet is a political embarrassment. Wind turbine jack-up barges worldwide generally run 127 feet or wider
