NSTAR workers weave tale about power poles in "Connecticut" using threads provided by CEO May

Tom May and Werner Schweiger are globalists who couldn't make their employees end power surges in this neighborhood for two years. In fact, because the old people and otherwise unconscious don't report them (at least that's what they claim), they say they don't exist.

That was after NSTAR admitted they see them.

This is the same technique they've used off-Cape, and in Harwich in a story of surges told to me this week by someone now in the dark. Their negligent care of their equipment has been proven in the last week. One above ground transformer that was replaced in an attempt to stop the surges was rusted clear through as it had been here since 1978.

An example in Brewster is at pole 19/37, a repeated problem spot with RFI and then an exploding transformer on Great Fields Road in the last several years where a branch hit the wires during Irene. Despite sending a tree crew yesterday, nothing was done other than the branch being removed. They appeared to do their part. Where was NSTAR ? The pole lost its guy wire / ground. Why stop at a tree crew for electrical work yesterday ?


The company's plan for replacing and maintaining poles reduced much of the potential damage from the storm, May told the NStar crews working at the home on the corner of Phinneys Lane and Crosby Road.

In Connecticut, there were 2,500 poles down, he said.

“Can you imagine if that happened here?” May said.

“We'd be here for a month,” replied apprentice lineman Shelly Hall.

Is this what they mean ? It's all I can find, other than accusing them of an outright lie about their rotted-out, antiquated, unmaintained infrastructure.


Let's get this clear once and for all. New York and New Jersey aren't the same state as Connecticut. They aren't even served by the same power company.


toppling hundreds of utility poles and power lines

Sorry. Even with NSTAR CEO and Bank of America Board member May standing there wearing his NSTAR hat, a lie is a lie.


Within the first 24 hours following Hurricane Irene’s impact on Connecticut, CL&P has restored power to over 288,000 customers.

That doesn't excuse any company. They had a plan alright... a plan to let the system rot until it fell down in a storm.

What kind of literal holocaust would have occurred with hundreds of millions of people in the northeast with no electricity for months, if the Weather Mitigation Unit hadn't acted ? This is ten years of "homeland security" when the USA can be felled by globalist corporatists failing to act ?


During a multi-day restoration such as this, approximately 75 percent of crews will begin their shifts around 7:00 a.m. so we can maximize daylight hours and be most productive. The remaining 25 percent of crews will begin their shifts around 3:00 p.m. and will work through the night. Given the restoration efforts we face going forward, all employees are also required to take at least an eight hour rest period between shifts to ensure their safety.
