Stop I-3 Board Comments, Questions Nuclear Complex
2030 Environmental Impact Statement
Letter to Theodore A.
Wyka, Complex 2030 SEIS Document Manager, from the Stop
I-3 Coalition
The Stop I-3 Coalition would like to make
the following points and pose the following questions regarding
the Department of Energy/ National Nuclear Security Administration
plans for Complex 2030, which involves significantly increasing
nuclear weapons activities at Oak Ridge, TN and Savannah
River Site, SC, with accompanying nuclear materials transport
on the highways of the Southeast region. This is the final
version of our comment for the Complex 2030 EIS scoping
phase and should replace the preliminary statement we filed
at Oak Ridge, Tennessee on Nov 13, 2006. Read

A
Letter from Bob Massey to the Cherokee County, N.C. Commissioners:
All we need do is look south to our friends in Jasper, Ellijay
, and Blue Ridge to see just how fast an interstate can eat
communities. If I-3 comes to fruition then we will be truly
caught in the cross hairs of 2 interstates I -575, I-3, plus
Corridor "K" Our community will not stand a chance.
I am not opposed to economic progress, but when I hear the
phrase "I-3 will bring an economic boom to the area"
it's the BOOM part of the phrase that frightens me. Boom,
usually indicates rapid, unplanned growth and development
without regard to existing community culture or heritage.
We will continue to grow, prosper and expand inspite of I-3,
but hopefully not with all the trappings that an interstate
brings, crime, noise and air pollution, and perhaps most importantly,
we will not be asked to sacrifice our sense of identity, and
community. Read

This letter is a position on the newly proposed Interstate
3 across northern Georgia and southwestern North Carolina

overwhelming consensus of opinion of the board and then an
overwhelming vote of the membership of the Mountain High Hikers
at a large dinner meeting on September 6, 2005. The Mountain
High Hikers is a trail club that maintains over one hundred
miles of trails in northern Georgia and western North Carolina,
and is made up of currently 197 members from three
counties around the Blairsville area of Georgia and Cherokee
and Clay Counties in North Carolina. The Mountain High Hikers
voted as STRONGLY OPPOSED to the proposed Interstate
3 coming across the Southern Appalachian Mountain area. Read

This letter is being written on behalf of more than 40,000
members of
the Georgia Wildlife Federation who enjoy hunting, fishing,
bird watching,
hiking and other outdoor activities in the state of Georgia,

North Georgia Mountains. Conservation of wildlife habitat
is an important

link Savannah with
Knoxville, Tennessee by way of the mountains of North Georgia
and Western
North Carolina. Read
