 There are folks from Asheville mobilizing to attend a public NEPA Hearing Thursday (MAYDAY) May 1 -- in Gaffney, SC -- about 60 miles from Asheville -- where Duke is intending to build two more nuclear power reactors... more radioactive rain and fog... more uranium fuel... more water (Broad River) vaporized into our atmosphere - -millions of gallons a minute... more radioactive waste...more risk of something really bad happening, and worst of all -- a huge, expensive boondoggle that will NOT help solve the climate crisis -- while sucking BILLIONS out of solar, wind and most important -- SMART use of power!

We plan to depart via van / carpool from Westgate Shopping Plaza at 5 PM May 1st --  and demonstrate to Duke and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission that not everyone in the Southeast is on board the nuke train!
 To car pool, please contact Laura Sorensen  665-3668  <lsorensen@bellsouth.net> or Lew Patrie 299-1242 <patrie.wncpsr@main.nc.us>to hook  up with folks who are going.
