...power plant proposed to be constructed by MASCO is not in the best interests of the Harvard Schools, hospitals or the city of Boston from a financial, environmental or reliability standpoint...
There are viable alternatives to the plant which would assure the MASCO institutions of a reliable supply of steam and chilled water. Any suggestion that the proposed plant is necessary to assure the MASCO institutions of a reliable supply of electricity is absolutely untrue. Edison is presently supplying and has for many years supplied substantially all the electric requirements of the MASCO institutions on a highly reliable basis. In fact, over many years Edison's record of reliability has been 99.99 per cent. If they continue to purchase their electricity from Edison, Edison is ready, willing and able to continue...
...report [the draft environmental impact statement on the power plant] states repeatedly that the construction of the MASCO plant is necessary because of Edison's decision not to proceed with a transformer installation which would be located at Colburn Street. Until MASCO made clear its intention to proceed with the proposed plant, Edison was planning the construction of a new transformer installation at Colburn Street to provide additional transformation and distribution facilities to supply the growing electrical needs of the MASCO institutions in the coming years. Edison had originally planned to have this facility in operation...
...inconceivable that in 1975 in New England, anyone would seriously propose that an electric-generating and steam power plant such as the proposed MASCO plant--a major industrial facility which would burn millions of gallons of oil each year, being completely dependent on fuel oil for the generation of electricity over the 40-year life of the plant and having no provision for the use of any other fuel--should be constructed on Brookline Avenue in the middle of a group of some of the finest hospitals in the world to supply electricity to those hospitals. The construction of such...
