Indeed, Moody's downgraded the SH 130 bonds in less than a year. Anti-toll leaders like Kurt Naas, the founder of WidenI-77.org, have said North Carolina taxpayers are on the hook if the NCDOT-Cintra toll plan in Lake Norman doesn't hold water. Already, state legislators like Rep. John Bradford and Sen. Jeff Tarte are saying the 50-year deal between NCDOT, as well as Gov. McCrory and all of North Carolina, and Cintra is a disaster. Moody's said in 2014, while not in legal default, "the failure to meet the full payment that was originally scheduled for June 30, 2014 constitutes a default under Moody's definition." The project sputtered forward in spite of the financial difficulties. News Radio WOAI in San Antonio in 2014 quoted a spokeswoman this way : "A portion of the payment was made recently and the remainder is due in the future. As a result of the modification, as a matter of fact and as a matter of law, there is no default."
