Meeting in Dorchester Wed, March 23

What if MAPP were rerouted to pass near your home?
MID-ATLANTIC POWER PATHWAY
VITAL OPPORTUNITY TO PROTECT OUR HOMES
WEDNESDAY, MARCH 23RD, 7:00 PM
CAMBRIDGE-SOUTH DORCHESTER HIGH
SCHOOL
Though we’ve won some major victories, the MAPP extra-high
voltage transmission line still poses a major threat to your home
and mine. In fact, MAPP could still go anywhere in Dorchester
County.
One of the best opportunities to protect our homes, farms,
forests, and waterways happens next Wednesday, March 23rd,
7:00 pm at Cambridge-South Dorchester High School, 2475
Maple Dam Road. That’s when a
public hearing will be held on the proposed MAPP
Environmental Impact Statement (EIS).
The EIS is the only process where all of the alternatives to
MAPP must be given equal consideration, including No
MAPP and routing MAPP around the head of the
Chesapeake along an existing transmission line corridor.
The purpose of this meeting is to take public comment on
the alternatives and impacts YOU want addressed in the
EIS. So we hope you can attend. We also hope you can speak, though this isn’t
absolutely necessary. By simply being one of hundreds who attend the meeting you’ll
send a strong message that we are deeply concerned about this project.
If you do plan to speak then assume MAPP is rerouted so it passes close to your home
or other parts of our County you treasure. Talk about what impacts this could cause
and ask that each of these impacts be addressed in the EIS. Again, at this point
MAPP could cut across any part of our County.
