GENERAL SHALE PLANS FOR EXPANSION

General Shale has made application to Knox County to expand their mining operation on Millertown Pike (known as "Site A") in the Sentertown Community.

Many residents are concerned about General Shale's activity in the community, particularly given Shale's purchase of additional properties situated on and around Legg Ridge.

We need residents to voice their opinions to MPC and Knox County Commissioners on this important issue. Please call Faye Loftis at 523-2498 for more information or send an email to president@neknox.org.

We're not alone! Here's the web site of some folks in Barboursville, Virginia at www.b-ville.net who are also trying to avoid General Shale's strip mining activities around their homes.
