WE CAN DO BETTER THAN LONGVIEW!

Located on a hilltop with an emissions stack over 550 feet high, the aptly named Longview Power plant will be seen for several miles. Check the map below to see where your house is located in Longview's "viewshed," which cover a substantial portion of eastern Monongalia county. (Here is the map as a pdf - 421 KB.)

The second map (below) shows the location of the 7 power plants already located in a 28-mile radius of Morgantown.

The noise generated by the Longview plant would affect the local Fort Martin community. Additional noise would come from Longview's 4-mile-long conveyor belt and the trucks used to haul coal to Longview.

The map below shows the power plants located in a 25-mile radius of Morgantown.
