Now Deepwater reveals that it needs to install twice as much infrastructure on land and in the water

Deepwater continued to slowly reveal its ultimate and closely held plans in its late October filings with the Federal Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM).

  • It divulged it now would run powerlines twice as powerful on Beach Lane beach and throughout Wainscott as planned (output lines will now be 230,000 volts, rather than its originally communicated 138,000 volts; and it wants to run two 230,000-volt lines, so 460,000 volts total, onshore throughout Wainscott)
  • Admitted it will need to dig at least 20 permanent vaults the size of ocean shipping containers (26’4” x 9’4” x 10’) throughout Wainscott. For example, its construction plans show that two of these massive vaults alone will be in front of our beloved Lisa and Bill’s Farm Stand
