OH Anti-Pipeliners Allege Some Letters to FERC were Forged

| | | | | | |
pot-kettle-blackVirulent anti-fossil fuel nutters who are opposed to Spectra Energy's $2 billion, 255-mile NEXUS interstate pipeline that will run from Ohio through Michigan and eventually to the Dawn Hub in Ontario, Canada, have stayed up late at night reading through all of the comments sent to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC). The habit of antis is to generate a blizzard of negative comments to FERC on any given project, sometimes using the names of their children (see Delaware Riverkeeper Scams FERC in Review of PennEast Pipeline). The antis say after reading thousands of comments supplied to FERC, they've found "maybe 200" that support the pipeline that are suspicious. In one case they said a letter was signed by someone who has been dead since the 1990s. In other words, the antis are alleging fraud--that pro-drillers or even Spectra Energy itself is engaged in fraudulently sending letters of support from people that don't support the pipeline. Which is kind of funny, since antis themselves are typically the ones who engage in this kind of fraud! We guess it takes one to know one...
