Brungy, I'm confused on why LLEG would need to conduct and pay for an independent study on the wood supply. Haven't they already done a 3rd party independent study as apart of their application to the NHSEC (conducted by Landvest)?
Why would this independent study be unacceptable? Is it fraudulent or missing certain data/criteria required for the NHSEC application? If it was missing criteria, I would think the SEC would have rejected the application for being incomplete? I could be wrong, but I believe the study will stand as is, unless a second 3rd party study contradicts it.
It appears that Clean Power has a study as TAP mentioned, but they may be taking into account different distances from the plant for the wood basket. (I.E. 30 miles compared to 120 miles is quite a difference as BigBucksFI mentioned) Here in Wisconsin, where I live, they ship 'tree trunks' hundreds of miles by train and it doesn't appear to be a problem.
Anyhow, you could be right, but I would think it would be NH who would need to order & pay for a study if they felt the Landvest study was inaccurate. Maybe they would charge this to LLEG, I don't know? Seems odd to me that LLEG would have a 3rd party conduct a wood basket study as part of the SEC application, and then require them to have another 3rd party conduct a second study - just to be safe.
