Capon Valley Coalition

Eddie Brill, a member of the Capon Valley Coalition executive committee, and others met last Friday (March 2) with a member of Sen. Jay Rockefeller’s staff to convey our message of opposition to Allegheny Power’s unwarranted plans to run a high-voltage power line through our communities.

Here is the gist of that meeting, from Eddie:

We met with John Richards in Rockefeller’s office. He was very open to our discussion and told us that he would confirm what (CVC exec committee member) John Anderson and the rest of us were saying and that he would talk with Senator Rockefeller.

He advised us to get as many people involved with our cause and to continue to write letters and to keep on top of our arguments.

He very strongly advised us to connect with other large groups or organizations to confirm and enforce our issues.

We will stay in touch with Sen. Rockefeller through John Richards, but our voice will be stronger if everyone writes Rockeller a letter. (You can find Rockefeller’s address on the “Take Action” page.)
NOTE: You can see what others are writing by clicking on the “Letters” link in the CATEGORIES box on the right. That will pull up all of the letters we have posted on the Web site.

We also have letter writing tips on the “Take Action” page.
