FERC just posted the attached letter reversing their earlier decision to close the canal.  Note the mention of the Conservation Commission's comments being in agreement with the DEP.  We should send a thank you letter to the DEP or something, they really stood up for our fishermen.
 
Note that I was able to receive this notification by email since I set up a FERC eLibrary account yesterday and requested all new postings for the project to be emailed to me.  Wish I had known sooner that I could do that.
 
I don't know that the case is closed - I imagine McCallum can file something or other to keep this going, and FERC did not specifically order McCallum to remove the new fence. But it's great news.

Agreed.  Well done faithful servant.  Just all remember, this one is complicated and there will be chapters yet to be written.  Don't think you can pop the champagne just yet.  Speaking of festivities - anyword on when the annual City Hall xmas party is?  Earlier known the better for my calendar planning. - TomH
