Looks like EnCap has been run out of Dodge City.
At yesterday's New Jersey Meadowlands Commission meeting EnCap Golf Holdings LLC was denied by a unnanimous vote for any further extension to remediate the troubled project.
Governor John Corzine and State Attorney General Anne Milgram were immediately notified.
For all intents and purposes the landfill green dream that has sucked up eight years of time and money is essentially at an endgame position.
From Corzine's office:
STATEMENT FROM THE GOVERNOR ON THE ENCAP PROJECT
TRENTON - Governor Jon S. Corzine today issued the following statement regarding the Encap redevelopment project:
"My primary objective always has been to ensure that the contractually obligated remediation be carried out. Donald Trump and his project team have made progress toward this end. Now that the Meadowlands Commission has denied any further extensions, the Commission will pursue that objective by the legal remedies available to ensure speedy completion of the needed environmental remediation."
Well, there's a garbled mouthful.
