Douglas rips Sen. Clinton on endorsement of tire burn

MONTPELIER, Vt. Senator Hillary Clinton is jumping the gun in endorsing a two-week test tire burn at International Paper's Ticonderoga mill.

That's the word from Vermont Governor James Douglas in a letter to the New York Democrat today.

Douglas says Clinton's timing was off when she sent a letter earlier this month to the New York Department of Environmental Conservation urging that it approve the test tire burn.

The governor notes that International Paper has yet to file an application for a permit amendment.

He says he hopes the company will consider installing new and improved anti-pollution technology.

It seems to me that the State of New York's version of the EPA

EnCon (gag)

I assume the edge of the burner's property is fully within the State of New York.

It is.

Regulatorily, she probably has no real say in what the State Regulators do.

But it's crossing state lines. Does this not make it a federal issue? See acid rain?

Hopefully development in Thermal Depolymerization will make the plant redundant.

Wow that is clearest picture I've seen showing what front were capped and what are original. Now let me go back and check out where the wrinkles should have been.
