Sal DiMasi Advocate for Wind Turbines Hearing Nov 1, 2016

Pictured Federally convicted former Massachusetts Speaker of the House Sal DiMasi and former Governor ( Aka Sally Reynolds ) Deval Patrick

The wind turbine legislation signed by these two former Massachusetts legislators took the health and property rights of citizens in 21 communities

Massachusetts Climate Crisis requires prioritized attention and action on the scale equivalent to a major war. These local and state politicians have lost sight of the safety and health of residents of Massachusetts

U.S. District Court Judge Mark Wolf has set a hearing date of November 1, 2016 for the early medical release of Sal DiMasi. What about all the residents of Massachusetts suffering from the poor placement of wind turbines because of the Green Communities Act and Sal DiMasi ? When do they get out of their homes that have become their jails ?

The public needs answers on the Massachusetts commercial wind turbine agenda of 2000 megawatts of wind power by 2020. Federal officials at NASA knew in 1987 commercial wind turbines were too loud for residential locations.

Why did former Governor Deval Patrick use the fake email address of sally.reynolds@state.ma.us which the governor admitted at the trial of Dimasi.
Did the former governor use the fake email address to correspond with wind turbine contractors ?

Massachusetts House Speaker Salvatore F. DiMasi was the architect of Green Communities Act which set a goal of 2000 megawatts of renewable commercial wind turbine power by the year 2020 in the state.

The 2008 Green Communities Act was misguided legislation that has led to massive wind turbine lawsuits all over Massachusetts.

Sal DiMasi was sentenced to eight years in federal prison for his conviction on political corruption charges.

DiMasi has been trying to use the political get out jail free card since his conviction. U.S. District Court Judge Mark Wolf has stopped another attempt to get an early release based on medical conditions.

Massachusetts politicians have to look at the wake of lawsuits over commercial wind turbines in at least twenty one communities caused by the land based renewable energy goals crippling the health and property rights of Massachusetts citizens caused by Sal DiMasi and the Green Communities Act

We also quickly forget another favorite of the convict Sal Dimasi is the Massachusetts Oceans Act of 2008. The 120 commercial ocean wind turbine proposal was slated for Buzzards Bay despite Ram Island in Mattapoisett. The island is the chief nesting area of all the Roseate Terns in North America.

Sal DiMasi and his wife were best friends with a large construction magnate proposing the Buzzards Bay wind project which was incidentally was going right outside the proposed 35 million dollar New Bedford Marine Commerce Terminal an ocean wind turbine port.
Sal told legislators that he could be trusted not to get the state involved in his construction friend's business. The news media never put together that the state was building and paying for an ocean wind turbine port in New Bedford right next door to the Buzzards Bay proposed 120 wind turbine project.

The Buzzards Bay 120 wind turbine project was hotly opposed by environmental groups and local Mattapoisett activists. There are no wind turbines in Buzzards Bay or Mattapoisett today.
The construction of the New Bedford Marine Commerce Terminal an ocean wind turbine port never stopped.

The news media and politicians touted a new cover up story that Cape Wind was going to use the port to build their turbines out of New Bedford. The problem with that story was Cape Wind was only permitted by the federal government to construct the turbines from Quonset Point, Rhode Island.

Let's look at the path of destruction left by Sal DiMasi, the Green Communities Act in Falmouth, twenty one other communities and ocean turbine project in New Bedford

------------------------------------------
Falmouth, Massachusetts is ground zero for poorly placed wind turbines in North America taking the health and property rights of its citizens.

Prior to the installations of the Falmouth wind turbines noise warnings found in previous boiler plate wind studies were deleted. The town hid noise warning letters and any negative documents.The town hid the documents to avoid filing special permits that would have alerted abutters.

The Massachusetts Technology Collaborative today the Massachusetts Clean Energy Center was the original owners of the wind turbines.

The poor installation caused twenty one other communities to have poorly placed wind turbines losing health and property rights.

The Massachusetts Clean Energy Center has admitted in a 2013 memo the Falmouth wind turbines were installed Ad Hoc and the acoustic noise tests done for the first wind turbine Falmouth Wind I was flawed. There was no acoustic noise test for the second turbine Falmouth Wind II and no tests for both turbines operating together.

Falmouth has eleven ongoing lawsuits over the turbines. The town has sued its self twice costing up to $300,000.00 every six month in litigation fees.
The land based wind turbine projects are a health and financial fiasco.
--------------------------------------------------
New Bedford, Massachusetts started to build an ocean wind turbine port in 2012 at a proposed cost of 35 million.

Today the news media reports the ocean wind terminal is complete at 113 million dollars. The question today is how far can the media stretch the truth.

The Massachusetts Clean Energy Center like the Falmouth health and fiasco is involved in the New Bedford Marine Commerce Terminal financial fiasco.

The bond payments at taxpayer expense are $187,500.00 a month for 30 years and the port remains incomplete.

The terminal sits idle as the MassCEC has for two years been unable to find a port operator.
The MassCEC filed for a Tiger Grant to build a rail link to the terminal. The grant was never awarded and the port has no rail link.

There are no large walking cranes at the port .

The MassCEC will only say this is part of " phase two." This leaves the taxpayer to wonder if the local media calls the port complete how many "phases" are there going to be ?
The hurricane gate only has a legal opening of 120 feet and has the largest fishing fleet on the east coast.

The channel outside the hurricane gate for five miles needs one million cubic yards of material with PCBs dredged as the channel can only be used at high tide.
The local politicians and media tout the terminal complete ?

Recently Cashman Dredging and Marine Co., of Quincy, and New Jersey-based Weeks Marine Inc. filed a 23 million dollar civil complaint July 22 in Suffolk County Superior Court in Boston. ( Jay Cashman- Sal DiMasi are they still friends )

The litigation alleges that MassCEC misrepresented the scope and conditions of dredging work October 6 according to court records the defendant, Massachusetts Clean Energy Center answered with a counter claim.

Falmouth has been in litigation for 5 years over the land based wind turbines now we see another 5 years of lawsuits by the Massachusetts Clean Energy Center in New Bedford.
How much longer before taxpayers wake up ?

Today the terminal is being used as a metal junk yard.

Next time you go to get new tires or pay a bill think of that $ 187,500.00 a month bond payment for 30 years on the so called complete ocean wind turbine port

Do you think Sal DiMasi should get out of jail early
