PATH's attorney's monthly data request filings have hit a new low for inaccuracy.  The PSC staff asked PATH to provide a monthly report on the number and locations of residences needing relocation for the proposed project as well as the number of property owners contacted thus far.  Doesn't sound too hard, does it? 

The reports are sporadic.  Many months have been skipped.

The number of residences is 2 (only one of which is a permanent residence) and a location for these residences has never been divulged.  Why, I've met with two separate landowners of year-round residences right here in Jefferson County in the past five days who were told by PATH land agents "the line is going to go right over the roof of your house".  If the land agent is telling the truth, than Jay Ruberto is lying.  If Ruberto is telling the truth, then the land agents are lying.  Or maybe they're both lying?  Who can tell?

The number of properties identified requiring a right-of-way climbs monthly and now stands at 1,137.  However, this month, the number of landowners contacted thus far dropped by eleven, from 1,111 in May to 1,100 in June.  How did they un-notify 11 landowners?  Were they all named Nell Fenwick and tied to the tracks by Snidely Whiplash or something?  Did they all simultaneously develop amnesia?  What happened to those eleven landowners?

Why is our PSC accepting these illogical answers from parties who should know better while chastising pro se intervenors for their lack of knowledge about PSC procedure?
