According to the Tuesday August 12, 20<strong>03</strong><br />
Globe, (page F 1) Duke Energy Corporation<br />
“is abandoning, for now, a $100 million<br />
proposal to build a seven-mile natural<br />
gas pipeline from Winthrop to Everett that<br />
could have required tunneling under runways<br />
at Logan Airport. “ The reasons<br />
Duke is putting the proposal on hold are<br />
reportedly financial problems for the Exelon<br />
power plant in Everett, a lower than<br />
anticipated demand for liquefied natural<br />
gas, and major safety concerns from the<br />
communities that would be effected by the<br />
pipeline. Massport had expressed some<br />
serious concerns, specifically catastrophic<br />
explosion or sabotage, and had asked Duke<br />
PIPELINE UPDATE<br />
Energy to provide them with comprehensible<br />
risk assessment for the construction<br />
phase as well as the operations.<br />
While Duke energy has said that it is considering<br />
other routes for the pipeline, the<br />
article implies that once the new owner of<br />
Exelon is known, there will probably be<br />
renewed consideration to building the pipeline<br />
as the existing energy plants are not<br />
going away.<br />
While under a reprieve, it behooves CPYC<br />
and Winthrop to continue to be aware of<br />
what is happening with the pipeline project.<br />
Thanks to Dick Dimes for the heads up on<br />
this information.<br />
ADULT SAILING LESSONS END<br />
The very successful Adult Sailing lessons ended with an evening of sailing on some of<br />
the larger sailboats at the club. The students got to drive as they toured Boston Harbor<br />
while others enjoyed the views, beverages and snacks. Thanks to all of the students<br />
and instructors for making this such a successful CPYC program both on the water<br />
and socially. It harbors well for future years. In <strong>Sept</strong>ember students and instructors got<br />
together for a final dinner.<br />
Looks like one happy crew<br />

EDITORIAL NOTES<br />
My apologies to the CPYC membership<br />
for the lateness of this the <strong>Sept</strong>ember<br />
Windjammer. In spite of our moving I had<br />
the best intentions of getting this issue out<br />
in a timely fashion. I did not succeed.<br />
Please note that you can now get information<br />
to the Windjammer at Windjammer@CPYC.org<br />
I am now linked to club<br />
website. SSH<br />
