A new whistleblower has contacted the Uncle
Gnarley Blog — shedding new light on who is
responsible for the severe flooding and evacuation of the community of Mud Lake
in May.
The confidential
source has leaked a copy of a letter sent by Bernard Pennecon LP, the
contractor building the North and South Dams, to Nalcor’s subsidiary, Muskrat
Falls Corporation. The document states that the event was due to Nalcor’s “failure
to manage the downstream flows which resulted in the flooding of the Mud Lake
Community.” (Bold added to all direct quotes from the Barnard Pennecon letter.)
The letter dated 23-May-2017 was given exclusively to the Uncle Gnarley Blog.In January another whistleblower, the "Anonymous Engineer", gave the Uncle Gnarley Blog details of how the estimates for the Muskrat Falls project had been falsified in Nalcor's bid to get sanction, a process which continued until after the 2015 General Election.
