LLC'S MOTION TO INTERVENE Brookhaven Energy Limited Partnership ("Brookhaven Energy") respectfully submits this opposition to PPL Global, LLC's (PPL) Motion to Intervene in the above-titled matter. INTRODUCTION On September 13, 2001, PPL filed a Motion to intervene as-of-right and become an active party participant in the matter of Brookhaven Energy's application. The New York Board on Electric Generation Siting and the Environment ("Siting Board") should not grant the PPL's Motion because it is untimely. Additionally, PPL fails to demonstrate that it is a party to a certification proceeding pursuant to any specific section of New York Public Service Law ("PSL") § 166 or that the issue that it seeks to address is relevant and material to this Article X proceeding. PPL's Motion should be denied. POINT I PPL'S MOTION IS UNTIMELY PPL's Motion to intervene should not be granted because it is untimely. Although PPL has not identified which paragraph of § 166 it seeks to gain party status under, the time for filing a notice of intervention under any of the paragraphs occurs within forty-five days after the date given in the published notice as the date for filing of the application. See PSL §§166 (IXhHl).1 In this case, the date that the application was filed, as published in the notification, was June 25, 2001. Therefore, all requests to intervene were due by August 9, 2001. Since PPL's Motion was not filed within that time, its Motion must be denied. POINT II PPL IS NOT ENTITLED TO INTERVENE IN THIS PROCEEDING BECAUSE IT IS NOT A PARTY TO THE CERTIFICATION PROCEEDING AS DEFINED IN THE PUBLIC SERVICE LAW Even if it is not untimely, the PPL's Motion must be denied because it does not qualify for party status. In Section 166, the New York Public Service Law defines all of the entities that are parties to a certification proceeding.

Localities are listed alphabetically, followed by the counties in which they are located (in parentheses), postal addresses if different from the locality names, and ZIP codes where available. ZIP codes are for mailing purposes only. Since there may be more than one locality in a ZIP code or more than one ZIP code in a locality, do not use ZIP codes to determine the local sales tax rate for any locality. For example, some Larchmont and Scarsdale mailing addresses are actually in the city of New Rochelle, and some Scarsdale mailing addresses are in the city of Yonkers. To determine the physical location of any property in question, check the street listings for New Rochelle (Publication 634) or Yonkers (Publication 647). These publications are available from the Tax Department, which has street listings for all cities that impose a local sales tax. To determine the combined state and local tax rate of the cities (or counties) that impose tax, ask for Publication 718, New York State and Local Sales Tax Rates by Community.

The article contextualizes the Long Island Rail Road in American railroad history both as a private company and public service. Using the Port Jefferson branch as an example, it argues that state proprietorship was essential for modernization and that recent improvements proved to be a poor investment. Keywords: Railroads, Long Island, Port Jefferson, Improvements, Capitalism, Electric rail Locomotion, Diesel Locomotion 1 Like other American railroads, the Long Island Rail Road (LIRR) was at an impasse by the mid­twentieth century. Since rail was no longer the preferred method of transportation, many private railroads faltered and were forced into bankruptcy, unable to fund operating costs and essential improvements. Ultimately, public management set railroads on the right track since private companies alone could not raise sufficient capital. With government aid, antiquated rail systems were modernized to provide safe and reliable service. Since it served one of the fastest growing suburbs in the country, the LIRR’s survival was crucial to the island’s future. In the 1960s, New York State took action and created an agency to finance improvements and oversee operation.
