Draft EIS for the Atlantic Coast Pipeline:
7 Major issues with the Route through our National Forests
Please consider writing a letter to protect the outstanding natural characteristics of our national forest land on Shenandoah and Hankey Mountains.
The Rt. 250 corridor is a major gateway to our proposed Shenandoah Mountain National Scenic Area, providing access to Braley Pond Day Use Area, Dowells Draft area, Staunton Dam, Elkhorn Lake, Camp Todd, Todd Lake, North River Campground and much more. The ACP is not compatible with the values we are trying to protect: healthy outdoor recreation, clean water, and wildlife habitat.
