BP's Chandler states that BP's Cape Vincent Wind project violates local zoning".

BP Minion ~ Chandler

At the Special meeting at Recreation Park, Tuesday evening Dave Henderson  Lyme Town Councilman addressed Richard Chandler, BP project developer.


 The following is an excerpt not the full exchange

 Dave Henderson : I guess I’m asking , have you taken  into consideration  the latest information,  world  standards on siting turbines?

 Chandler: Again, I don’t know how you are defining world standards. I've indicated what it is that we have looked at .  

Dave Henderson: Have you looked at the world health organization’s recommendations?

Chandler: if you have additional standards that you'd like for us to factor in that are outside of the town zoning law, we will be happy to take a look at them. What I've described is what we've factored in.

Dave Henderson:   you are not addressing the town zoning law at all, like I said you are going to ignore the town zoning law.

 Chandler: We have read the town zoning law.

 Dave Henderson: But you're not going to abide by it.

Chandler: we have read it we read it, we have factored it in, and we are proposing for discussion what we have behind you.

Dave Henderson:  What’s behind me does not represent the town zoning law, is that correct?

Chandler: I believe it's correct to say that if we were to take this layout and overlay it the town zoning law it would be in violation of that.

Dave Henderson: Thank you.

With the exception of the solid reprimand, and sound spanking delivered by Dick Macsherry, this was the most significant exchange of the evening.

Chandler conveyed his corporate message in two short utterances.

Chandler: we have read it we read it, we have factored it in, and we are proposing for discussion what we have behind you.

Chandler: I believe it's correct to say that if we were to take this layout and overlay it the town zoning law it would be in violation of that.

The line has been drawn, any further local participation in BP's PIp is unneccessary and redundant.

Lets move on to our next move to counter this frontal attack.

Once you enter a combative situation, you don't invite your opponent to your home field to practice .

Brooks made it clear- we are now adversaries! Lets act like it

In response to all of the BP lies, the best advice to Chandler was
"Cut the bullshit."
