The CPA includes 14 member groups so far, including Citizens for a Healthy Rural Neighborhood of Perry. They're primarily based in Western New York, though the CPA is a statewide group, with other members in New Hampshire and Ohio.

Proof that UPC has compromised a Cohocton Planning Board member who voted for the UPC " Special Use" Permits.
Now he is employed by the Mortenson general contractor on the UPC Wind Cohocton Project, while remaining a Cohocton Planning Board member.

CITIZEN POWER ALLIANCE: Citizen Power Alliance April 9, 2008 Letter to U.S. …

Citizen Power Alliance strongly opposes the inclusion of industrial wind subsidy in this bill. Extension of the investment tax credit (ITC) and providing incentives for an inefficient technology will only cause a further tax burden on the public. The following points are compelling:

Vote NO on S. 2821, the Clean Energy Stimulus Act or eliminate industrial wind from any other legislative bills that provide investment tax credits (ITC).

The purpose of addressing your assembly today is to inform the elected county officials of Steuben County that there is a serious problem with SCIDA. As you are aware, this body appoints the board members of SCIDA. The New York State legislature has in the past provided the authority for IDA's. Last year a temporary extension for the state's IDA was passed. That extension expired on January 31, 2008.

Iberdrola seeks to force this kind of marginal technology, at best, upon every hamlet and hillside in a reprehensible attempt to produce a superior stock holder return on equity. How does the NY consumer benefit from such a plot to defraud the ratepayer? The threats of eminent domain have been heard at every corner of our state.

When you understand that wind energy does not work on a "utility-scale", the next questions are "Why are they doing it?" and ultimately "Who is behind it?"
Simply put, it's a corporate tax-avoidance scam, put in place by investment banking lobbyists, energy industry lobbyists, and the late Ken Lay and his Enron Wind subsidiary.

The ink is still moist on Capitol Hill's latest energy bill and, as if on cue, a scientific avalanche is demolishing its assumptions. To wit, trendy climate-change policies like ethanol and other biofuels are actually worse for the environment than fossil fuels. Then again, Washington's energy neuroses are more political than practical, so it's easy for the Solons and greens to ignore what would usually be called evidence.
