Letter to the Editor October 2011
Published: October, 2011
After reading your article in the September issue about the wind turbine blades arriving at the port of San Francisco, I could not help make the following observation and comment:
1- Is it "legit" to transport oversized blades in a container that are going to stick out like that?
2-The US must have sunk quite low that it would buy second-hand, used equipment from Europe.
If it was an old still or a brass brewing tank, I would understand but we are talking high technology here. This would be like the California high speed rail authority buying a 20-year old TGV from France. Do you know that the used Los Angeles Unified School District yellow school buses find their way to the northern Mexican states? You can see them all over Baja California and further. This is how it feels like.
