Certificate <strong>of</strong> Convenience <strong>and</strong> Necessity. Exhibit 0, Rubedo<br />

Correspondence Dated June 22,2007.<br />

Only on two total occasions have TrAILCO representatives including,<br />

Teresa Mafia, <strong>and</strong> more recently, Jamie Bruce, approached us seeking<br />

access to mark a center stake for the TrAlL <strong>and</strong> requesting a right-<strong>of</strong> way<br />

to the property.<br />

Q.<br />

A.<br />

DO YOU HAVE ANY FINAL STATEMENTS FOR THE COMMISSION?<br />

Yes, if this Commission approves the Certificate <strong>of</strong> Convenience <strong>and</strong><br />

Necessity, my family <strong>and</strong> I will be completely devastated. Everything that<br />

three generations <strong>of</strong> my family have worked for wiil be wiped away with<br />

one stroke <strong>of</strong> your pen on the final order. I will not be able to start my own<br />

family on the property that nurtured me <strong>and</strong> my ancestors. All <strong>of</strong> my<br />

tireless work for the last 2 years will be rendered meaningless. I will be<br />

forced to ab<strong>and</strong>on my dreams. My beautiful farm “mansion” will be<br />

tragically lost to a speculative “need” for a power line that does not serve<br />

the people <strong>of</strong> West Virginia. This TrAlL is the true “alternate route”<br />

following Maryl<strong>and</strong>’s denial <strong>of</strong> TrAILCO’s request to build the TrAlL there.<br />
