20. You didn't answer my question about eminent domain
from an article about the project:

Crown Hydro requested—and was granted—repeated extensions on its FERC permit application. In its final request October 26, 2004, Crown informed FERC:

“Crown would still prefer to work out a lease with the Park Board, but has not dismissed the possibility of exercising eminent domain in accordance with applicable law in the event there is no ability to enter into an agreed-upon lease.”

So do you support private corporations taking public land for private gain?
