Mining companies have to post huge bonds to get permits to open surface mines. That bond assures the land will be reclaimed when they are done mining or go out of business.

There are no such bonds for windmills to my knowledge. When they fail, they’ll just be left there to ruin the landscape for 1,000 years. Kind of like a very ugly Stonehenge.

Just got back from WV. There is a lot with acres of pipes to be used on the pipeline. The pipes are 40 feet long, and 42 inch in diameter. Three at a time can be hauled by flatbed truck.

Our friend runs a food truck at a motel at which pipeline workers stay during the week while working. He is a hard worker, as are the pipeline workers. Why are they being laid off?

He said pipeline protesters were in the trees during the spring, prior to the start of the work.

This judge has done what a group of scraggly hippies could not do.
