What competition? BEC can't handle the load it has now. How can someone providing them with cheaper power (so they can keep Newry and FHG's lights on) a threat?

Heck it folks didn't like the 25 year deal, why not give them 1 million or use the Crown Land as leverage to ask for a percentage of the take from the sale of the electricity to Florida Power and Light up front?

Who is negotiating for us in gubment? Auntie Footie and Uncle Likker?
