The PSC has issued the Notice of Hearing for the Badger Coulee transmission project.\u00c2\u00a0 Dates, times, locations below.\u00c2\u00a0 Because there’s something even more important — look at the restrictions for those who want to comment:<\/p>\n

\"CommentRestrictions\"<\/a>There’s nothing in the docket of anyone, objecting to this.\u00c2\u00a0 WAKE UP!!!\u00c2\u00a0 Parties representing “the public” better stand up!<\/p>\n

Here’s even more limitations, setting out the ways people can comment, and that a person may make only ONE comment:<\/p>\n

\"PublicComments\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And this too:<\/p>\n

\"CommentRejection\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Now ain’t that encouraging?\u00c2\u00a0 Doesn’t that make you want to run right out and comment?<\/p>\n

\"Non-partyBrief\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Here’s the ALJ’s acknowledgement of that option, and how to do it, from the Prehearing Conference back in August (FYI, it’s Motion for Leave to file a non-party brief, not “relief”):<\/p>\n

Here’s the Public Hearing schedule — you’ve got a month to get ready:<\/p>\n

When you make your public comment, be sure to let Judge Newmark know what you think of all these restrictions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
