Excerpts From The  NYS Public Service Commission Hearings On The CPV Power Plant
On February 25, 2014, the New York State Public Service Commission held hearings in Middletown, NY, to get public comments on the proposed construction of a fracked-gas power plant in Orange County by Competitive Power Ventures (CPV). This 30 minute video shows much of the comments and testimony given from across the range of residents living and working in the affected NYS area: Minisink, Waywayanda and the county itself. Speakers come from: union council leadership positions, elected offices, the school board, environmental groups and individuals from many walks of life: teachers, union and non-union workers, neighbors and other local residents.
