ACTION ALERT - From the mailbag: Trail Closure

OVTP supporters,
Not to beat a Live Horse, but I hope you took the opportunity given to you last week to snail mail a letter to the DEP to request a public hearing on the Tunnel Ridge Coal Company's plan to get permit to close what could be PERMANENTLY, the Ohio County Trail North of Wheeling at their site. This would jeopardize future connector North as well. We have until July 16 to write to them.
We're asking supporters to write, using your own words to hold a public hearing that might prevent their permit approval. Your letter should mention: regarding permit number U-181-83
and ask the DEP to authorize a public hearing that will allow citizens to voice their concerns and hopefully block permit approval. The address to send to is:
Permit Supervisor
Department of Environmental Protection
105 South Railroad Street
Suite 301
Philippi, W.Va. 26416

Thank you,
Doug W.,pres. OVTP
