Williams power plant not welcome in South Fulton

Williams

power plant not welcome in South Fulton

I think that we all realize

that we need to prepare for our future electrical needs. I believe that

this plant is a good idea. But this company, Williams, is obviously seeing

only the money they will make as criteria for the site selection.

Cheap cost of land and one

owner to deal with, natural gas that is purchased from their subsidiary

company, Transco, water that is close (5.5 miles from Camp Creek) and

a power grid that they can connect to that saves them money from having

to build themselves. This is a pearl of a site to Williams and I'm sure

they will fight to get their plant here.

I hope they realize that they

will have created a hostile environment for themselves and the politicians

they make their deals with now will not be around to protect them in their

next term. That their families will not be accepted into our friendly

communities. I hope they realize that eyes and ears will be on them constantly

reporting ever grievance and violation to the appropriate agency and we

will not forget that Williams refused to abandon this site when the facts

show that it will affect the most vulnerable in our community , the elderly

and the children.

Williams, why do you want to

come where you are not wanted? No delay of time or postponements will

dampen or weaken our community's resolve to eliminate you from this area.

We read from your environmental impact report that you state this area

you selected to put the plant has a demographic of 93 percent (nonwhite).

It's African-American. We can all read between the lines.

Williams, please do not underestimate

the power of this community. We have come together, black and white across

county lines, to join together to save our peaceful place of living from

the likes of non-caring, unfriendly, information-withholding company like

yours.

We gave you a chance to approach

us openly and honestly and you sent a man, Mr. Skizim, that chose to be

deceptive. This is our home and we will fight to keep it that way. Everyone

is judged in the end for how they treat their neighbor and apply the Golden

Rule. All I can say to you is, "Good luck," you'll need it.
