It's amazing how the media can turn a piece on a crane accident into a NIMBY promotion.

If they don't want the infrastructure maintained, maybe they should incorporate the mainline into their plans to close lines as well. I'm sure News 12 will have another piece with the same NIMBY's complaining that they can't get to work.
