Do you think the Concord area is worth protecting from outdated transmission towers and lines? Do you want to know more before it’s too late?

You’re invited…

to learn about the Northern Pass proposal, how the project would impact Concord neighborhoods and the rest of the 190-mile proposed route… and what you can do to influence decision makers in the coming weeks.

What: A Northern Pass Informational Session

Who: Hosted by the Society for the Protection of N.H. Forests and the Appalachian Mountain Club

When: Thursday, Sept. 24, 6:00 – 8:00 PM

Where: Mill Brook Elementary School multi-purpose room, 53 S. Curtisville Road, Concord

Why: Northern Pass’s latest proposal to build an electric transmission line to carry hydropower from Quebec through New Hampshire calls for burying just about a third of the 190-mile line. That means the towns and cities — including Concord — along the remaining two-thirds of the route still would have to sacrifice views and landscapes for the benefit of a private corporation.

We think that’s wrong, and we’d like to show you why. Please attend the informational session this Thursday night to become informed about the proposal.
