After 8 years of accepting a corrupt administration, the left is suddenly interested in finding obscure signs of corruption.
New had nothing to do with it. Lack of cat-5 hurricane building codes was the problem. Deregulation!
First off, I have to say that second photo is the most beautiful solar field photo I've ever seen. It brings years to my eyes.
There is no way to build electric distribution facilities to survive a direct hit from Cat-5 hurricane. Especially not on an island with a GOVERNMENT RUN POWER COMPANY already more than $19,000,000 in the hole.
It cost a crap load of money to ship fuel there to run their power plants. Solar was much cheaper for them.
Their power poles were all blown out of the ground. It was not because they were old & neglected. It was due to deregulation / poor design standards / lax building codes
You're a retard. Do you have any idea how much money it takes to run power lines? Let me clue you in. If you purchase a property without power to it next door to a property with power it's going to cost you 10 to 20 thousand to get that brought to your property line. That's here, mainland, no hurricane damage, no clean up to do to get the job done. No equipment or people coming from across the sea to do it.300 million to get power back and stabilized for 3.5 million people really doesn't sound that out of line. Especially taking the location and lack of skilled workers into account. When you have to ship 2,500 tons of equipment and the people that can run it to an island? I'm not sure anyone is getting ripped off here just going over the basics.Hey, it's just Trump paying off his friends with our 300 million. What's the big deal?
Oh stfu with that bullshit. It was a sweetheart deal using your money to enrich their friends. If you're cool with that go ahead and write them checks directly.
Besides the Zinke connections, the company has links to major Trump campaign donors:Hmm...
FBI investigates Puerto Rico power contract - WSJ
The Federal Bureau of Investigation is investigating a $300 million (227.20 million pounds) contract that Puerto Rico’s government power company awarded to a U.S.-based energy startup, the Wall Street Journal reported on Monday, citing people familiar with the matter.
The contract between Whitefish Energy Holdings and Puerto Rico’s bankrupt power utility came under fire after it was revealed last week that the terms were obtained without a competitive public bidding process.
Whitefish had more than 350 workers and 2,500 tons of heavy equipment on the ground for rebuilding electrical lines destroyed in Hurricane Maria, raising concern about Puerto Rico's management of federal disaster-relief funds to the island, the WSJ reported. (on.wsj.com/2zjM0vi)
The Federal Emergency Management Agency, multiple congressional committees and local auditors have begun requesting documents about the deal, according to the WSJ.
A Whitefish spokesman said the company was not aware of any such investigation and that it “is committed to full cooperation with any inquiry or investigation.”
$300M Puerto Rico Recovery Contract Awarded to Tiny Utility Company Linked to Major Trump Donor
The problem is this is a tiny company with close to 0 experience. they are farming out all the work & taking money off the top. giving a friend a job is not a problem. giving a job to any one not capable of doing even part of the job them self's, its a big problem when its our money.
I'm pretty sure Russia had something to do with this contract. No not the Clinton uranium deal Russia they are fine, the other Russia who made Trump president. That's the one the left doesn't like.Besides the Zinke connections, the company has links to major Trump campaign donors:Hmm...

So the Democrats that run Puerto Rico conspired with Trump to award a contract to a small Montana Company.
Yeah, right!

Fuckin LefTards...like usual, have no fucking clue what they're talking about.
WhiteFish Energy is a company that hires union workers through the International Brotherhood Of Electrical Workers...a huge union with access to thousands of highly qualified, highly trained union hands. The size of the company with the contract means very little.
Company X is given a contract, hires workers through a union, hires a book keeping firm....TA-DA!
See how this works now morons? You're welcome in advance.

If you fuckin Loons could pull your heads from your asses long enough to think logically you'd realize that no-bid contracts aren't that uncommon in urgent situations where time is of the essence and the time for due-process isn't afforded.
"U.S. law permits the government to award sole source contracts under specified circumstances (48 CFR Ch. 1, Part 6) but no-bid contracts are illegal under European Union commissioning law.[citation needed] Usually the reason is cost and urgency as a no-bid contract allows the government to get contractors working as quickly as possible in an "urgent" situation.
Legal reasons for sole source contracts in the USA include; 1. only one firm has a product that will meet the projects needs or only one firm can do the work; 2. The existence of an unusual and compelling urgency; 3. For purposes of industrial mobilization or expert services; 4. On international agreement; 5. Sole source is authorized or required by law, e.g., socio-economic programs; 6. National security and 7. The public interest."
Now go ahead and please shut the fuck up. Thank you.

Bullshit - plenty of ESTABLISHED utility companies approached, they couldn't get a call back.
But this company with 2 employers and relatively small job experience got the contract.
