April 26, 2012 ~ Cape Vincent Wind Project gets a new manager Richard Chandler

April 26, 2012 ~ BP Project manager, Peter Gross announced that he was leaving Cape Vincent and BP to “pursue an opportunity at another company” adding that the  CV wind farm project will 
move ahead with a new project manager, Richard Chandler.

 Gross said that BP is not sure which “landowners are getting the shaft” ” but that the company is devoting “a lot of time and attention to create the best layout.”  

  Gross also said the Cape Vincent Wind Farm and the St. Lawrence Wind  projects were merged in such a way as to preserve all permitting options, hinting that  BP would submit an application to the state for approval through an Article 10 process if the town of Cape Vincent adopts a stricter set of zoning laws on wind development,

  August 1, 2012 The Cape Vincent Town Board adopted the newly updated protective zoning law.

 Subsequently, BP submitted their project to the Public Service Commission  for approval through an article 10 process.

 Recently it was announced by BP that they are divesting their wind assets including Richard Chandler.  It looks like BP is giving Chandler the proverbial shaft as well.

  1. In my opinion I think the Times got the shaft back in January when the town of Clayton stood silent while the Times wrote a piece that said Iberdrola was on the fence with the Clayton - Iberdrola project.
    The Iberdrola election had already been filed and recorded in December. And Justin Taylor and his pb chair were copied and never corrected the erroneous information. That leads one to ask if Clayton and Iberdrola are in bed with each other and if they are enticing their young reporters to join in.

  3. Funny...but in Italy industrial wind is subsidized the same way and they follow the same business model. But instead of dealing with resistant citizens they deal with the mafia who then deals with the resistant citizens. "See what we have here Tony are a bunch of dumb poveros and we have to learn em our way"
