EPA shuts cloud acid rain monitoring sites nationwide
Federal officials quietly cut funding for the three national cloud and fog monitoring sites ending testing in New York Adirondacks and Virginia Shenandoah while Tennessee’s Great Smoky Mountains site continues with state and agency funding. The closures come as a new Ecological Society of America report stresses cloud monitoring as essential to acid rain control.

Virginia attorney general intervenes in Bragg Case
Virginia Attorney General Mark Earley filed a friend of the court brief with the Fourth Circuit to protect mining jobs in southwest Virginia. The brief argues for balancing environmental concerns with job protection and energy needs, criticizing a West Virginia district court ruling as devastating to coal mining. The case Bragg v West Virginia Coal Association could affect Virginia coal jobs and state regulation of valley fills near streams.
