Hey, Battered, and TANC Project

Hey All!

Been AWOL again. Work has been very slow and I have been off work for a full month. I really have to find some work here soon. Even looking outside the construction industry.


Battered and Bruised!

Found this article today about the guy that should have never messed with this ex-boxer. I love these kind of stories! Story here...


TANC Project info

If your not informed about the TANC transmission product then here is what it's all about..

In a nut shell, some of the larger (and not so large like Redding Utilities) have gotten together and are trying to put 2 more 500kv electric lines through the North state. they claim that it will help with bottlenecks and that they are going to tie into "Green" energy. What it's basically all about is that they are trying to get some of the Obama stimulus money and in reality, there is no plan for an "Green" energy to tie into.

The proposed lines are going from Santa Clara to Ravendale and stopping. We have been fighting it for sometime. If you live anywhere in our valley, you could be affected by this project.

There are three proposed routes that are all on the valley floor. If you end up on one of the routes, you may have to have high power line towers on your property. Don't like the idea of that? Tough! they are planning on taking the property they need through Imminent Domain. Yo will be paid a small price, and they will put towers on your land, and you will have to live under these lines. Your property values will drop significantly and you will be stuck.

DON'T LET THIS HAPPEN TO YOURSELF OR YOUR NEIGHBORS!

Come out and helop the fight, or at least get informed. There will be a meeting in Redding at the Cascade Theater on July 8 at 5:30 PM. There is also plans for another meeting in Red Bluff later in the month.

If you need more info in this travesty, you can get it at this website or you can leave me a comment here and I'll get back to you.
