Watch this almost two-year old interview of WV Consumer Advocate Byron Harris that came on the heels of his agreement with the "sweet deal" Governor Manchin engineered behind closed doors in order to win approval of the unneeded TrAIL power line project. Harris intimates that even an unneeded project can be approved if there is enough "balance" between economic and environmental considerations. Does this mean West Virginia is for sale to the highest bidder?
At 7:00 into the video, the interviewer renders Byron temporarily speechless with the question, "What part did the Governor's office play in this particular agreement?"
Isn't the Consumer Advocate supposed to be on the side of the consumers?

Harris has already asked the PATH players during discovery if they would agree to the same or similar concessions in order to get PATH approved.
