How you can help Citizens for Alternatives to Longview Power (CALP)

CALP and the Mon Valley Clean Air Coalition (MVCAC) are working hard to stop these coal-fired power plants (and the big transmission lines they need) from being built in our area, producing electricity we don't use or need here. Many residents do not even know they are giving a tax break to a for-profit (big $$$) foreign company that will pollute our air, raise our electricity rates, and ruin our beautiful mountain view. We already have 10 operating power plants in the immediate area -- 7 of which are coal fired. Longview would be the 8th coal plant, and will not cause any of the older power plants to shut down; it will just add to the pollution.

CALP is committed to educating the community about the REAL impacts of GenPower's proposed (and aptly named) Longview Power Plant. You can help in the following ways:

• We need any monetary support you can provide to pay for expert witnesses and legal expenses for PSC and Supremem Court hearings.
