New power plant scam !
Hay lets bypass the EPA laws and build a *temporary* power plant in Oakdale
we need to hurry as natural gas prices are raising fast and wont support this
thinking very long.
No need for county input , the powers for San Jose anyway , and you folks
in the valley wont be able to stop the plant or it's asid rain and smog that comes with it.
lets just not 'even' think of buying PG&E's big hydro projects , after all theres no profit
to be made in river water as fuel for the power plants.
here's a idea , build the power plant at the old tire fire site on Ed Filbins land.
it wont be so far to send the power over the hill to the bay area , and the ground is allready
toxic on this site , ( thanks to Ed Filbins 'worlds bigest tire fire' )
Hay Can I get a *Temporary* permit to by pass the smog laws on my small car??
Word from the state , NO , but if you want to puff on a 30 foot corporate smoke stack NO PROBLEM

Some basic techniques of investigative reporting that
you—or any other citizen can use to obtain
information about the toxic-waste dump in your neighborhood;
the city-council zoning decision that seems to benefit one of the council members personally;
the reason your utility rates have been going up;
why some property-tax assessments increase yearly but others don’t; etc.
Information truly is power,
