Morning Water Code/FFMP update!!!
The water code vote has been delayed for 60 days. The pressure that was put on by your e mails to the powers to be "WORKED". NJ dep, Pa and the Army corp. responded to our push and they were the ones that pushed to reevaluate the FFMP thus resulting in the 60 day delay, not to mention the "ENDANGERED SPECIES ACT" violations that has taken place during the implimentation of the FFMP. This was also a key factor in this outcome. What will happen in the next 60 days? We can only speculate at this point! If we look at DRBC's past performance you can bet that they will put a little twist on the FFMP and the will get their propaganda news releases and statistics together and try to convince the concerned parties that this new twist solves all concerns. Mark my words this will happen soon. This fight is far from over!!!
Let's get to the real reason that NYC/DRBC will not release water to ANYONE for ANY CAUSE:
The FEDS have been on NYC/CRBC to build the Hudson Water Filtration system to the tune of $9,000,000,000 thats ($9 billion).
The Feds main concern is that if the Croton system goes down there would not be enough water to take care of this emergency. NYC/DRBC
convinced the feds that there is enough water in the Catskill system to take care of this emergency if it ever takes place. The FEDS in turn backed of NYC/DRBC for the construction of the filtration palnt at the $9,000,000,000 cost. If NYC/DRBC gives any water to anyone outside of normal operations the FEDS will force NYC/DRBC to build the system. NYC does not have nor will they spend $9,000,000,000 even if they had it. They would rather spend far less $ fighting in COURT!!!
THIS IS THE REASON THAT WE OR ANYONE ELSE WILL NOT GET WATER!!!
I again would like to thank you all for your support in this fight. I will keep you posted on the future series of events to come.
