There goes the Wind…
And so it goes, along with all the other projects that have died before becoming reality. It seems that the Wind Project highly anticipated and hoped for in the Gray Mountain and Cameron area has been put on hold. What a surprise!
Given what we now know about how the Gulf Oil Spill has been handled, it’s not surprising that our little section of the reservation will not see the Wind Project come to fruition anytime soon, if ever. It comes as no surprise that when Politicians become involved without taking into account the wishes and voices of the people that are affected, obstacles begin appearing and all too often will derail what is needed most.
What a disappointment to all the people who spent so much time putting together proposals, conducting the studies, attending meetings and providing input.
It’s a real shame.
