Vermont power storm sparks calls for reform and critique
Goddard College economist Lee Webb accuses a Vermont power nexus of bankers insurers and developers with ties to utilities of steering state policy and overbuilding Vermont Yankee. He blames Gov. Davis and interlocked directorships at CVPS Velco and Vermont Yankee, warns of higher rates, and urges policy changes including grid coordination and public power expansion. A separate local collision near Dorset leaves minor damage as a car hits a deer while two dogs chase it across Route 30.
