Letter to the Editor: N.H. doesn’t need or want this power line
“PSNH/NU/Northern Pass have all said the project is not dependent on RPS subsidies. Why was NU the biggest lobbyist in Connecticut for ratepayer subsidies of foreign government-owned large-scale hydro? It’s the same company that sent scores of lobbyists to the New Hampshire legislature to oppose efforts to protect private property.
Northern Pass wants to desecrate the White Mountain National Forest with two crossings of up to 155-foot towers and threatens numerous state and local conservation lands. For many people in our state, tourism is their only lifeblood. We will not allow Northern Pass to trespass on our state and destroy our properties, communities and families.”
