Natural features and it'll be the first step towards tearing down massive chunks of the western Forrested area.

I'll put it this way, maine voted to stop this problem in 2014. We continued to vote against it. It was never legally approved but now that Massachusetts is running out of power, they feel it's nessacary to overpower our decisions.

There previous project was going to go from the border of Canada, all the way to mass. They have have changed the words for congress but it doesn't mean the project has changed. It's still going to put a massive dent in our natural eco system.

53 miles is “massive chunks”?

The remaining two-thirds of the project follows existing power lines created for the state’s hydroelectric industry almost a century ago.

And aside from that, you asked “can someone do anything…?” and my answer stands. Only the court can stop it.
