Letter to ferc from fltf informs of property acquisition & requests regulatory transfer to state

1/13/2021

 
Now that FLTF has acquired the properties on behalf of the counties, we notified FERC of that fact. In addition, given there are significant issues with Boyce Hydro, the hydropower licenses and FERC, FLTF informed FERC (the regulatory authority for hydropower dams) it would be economically unfeasible to recover the investments needed to keep hydro on the dams.

The end of 2020 and beginning of a new future for the four lakes

12/30/2020

 
2020 will soon be behind us, but our work in many ways is just starting.

The counties made the decision to take the Boyce property and escape from an owner and system that failed to keep us safe, left people without homes and facing major repairs and an uncertain future. 
​
Regretfully, some of us will choose to move before we rebuild. It is unfair and wrong that the previous dam owner would be allowed to under-invest, and the very people that are impacted should pay. We live with these facts every day as we help people recover. We are blessed with an incredible team of volunteers and experts that are focused on helping people recover AND rebuild our future.
