Bumbling DRBC Doesn’t Know Who to Contact at FERC to Block PennEast

| | | |
Talk about a dysfunctional mess...The Delaware River Basin Commission (DRBC), a governmental organization remote-controlled by Big Green special interests, doesn't even know how to communicate with another governmental organization--the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC). Earlier this year, at the prompting of radical groups like THE Delaware Riverkeeper, DRBC sent a request to FERC asking the agency to block any tree felling ahead of a final approval by DRBC for the PennEast Pipeline--even though FERC and NOT the DRBC is the authorizing agency for PennEast. FERC doesn't have to wait for anybody for any of its decisions. Regardless, FERC does listen, especially to fellow governmental organizations. FERC gets a LOT of mail, email, etc. from complainers like the DRBC, so they have strict protocols in place for how other agencies and parties talk to it. DRBC should have sent their request to FERC Secretary Kimberly Bose (she's held that position and has been the point person since 2007), but DRBC didn't follow protocol. Instead, they just fired off their huffy demand to someone else in a different department, so their huffy demand never got considered. Totally blown off. Funny! And now DRBC is scrambling, attempting to cover up the fact they're so dysfunctional they don't their know their heads from their...we'll just leave it at that...
