Now is your opportunity to give input to the Nova Scotia Government. These two important press releases provide an opportunity to respond to the province's Protected Areas Strategy and  Environmental Assessment Process.  The deadline to provide your input for both of these is October 6th.

Protect Wentworth Vally has filed an application for a judicial review. The Higgins Mountain Environmental Assessment was passed with a lot of unanswered questions and community concerns were not addressed. We need to raise at least $30,000 to pay legal fees for the judicial review of the Higgins Mountain Wind Farm Environmental Assessment, and for ongoing administrative, social media and website maintenance costs.  Click below button to donate via PayPal or  email  info@protectwentworthvalley.com to donation with a cheque or cash.
