North Carolina seeks high court review of dam license
North Carolina petitions the U S Supreme Court to overturn an appeals court ruling affirming Appalachian Power Company’s Blue Ridge hydroelectric license on the New River. The state argues the project is unnecessary and would flood 14,000 acres across Ashe and Alleghany counties, displacing residents and destroying Indian artifacts. The Interior Department recently added 265 miles of the river to the Wild and Scenic Rivers System, a move that could block the project if upheld. The appeal notes the hearing insufficiently presented archaeological facts.
