The Metro Planning Commission meeting. Jan. 26, 2012.  Note Dr. Paul with Metro Nashville Health Dept. talks first about how he is concerned with health but not on the asphalt plant issue. Most of these officials don't have the guts to go against any issues as this...they stay safe.....   http://youtu.be/kUjdHQ1DlqI

 U.S. Army Corps of Engineers are looking into granting permits for at least three marinas on Old Hickory Lake in Tennessee.

 Tn Div. of Environment and Conservation is in the process of issuing an ARAP permit for Cumberland Yacht Harbor. They have never not issued this permit. It is a clean water permit. They should not issue this because this marina will not improve but will damage the water quality on Mill Creek. Please call to protest.

 The US Corps of Engineers issued a 404 permit to Cumberland Yacht Harbor. Construction will probably begin in April 2005. Please join STC in the opposition of this atrocity.

 Please mail comments about issuing Cumberland Yacht Harbor a 401 Water Quality Permit. Mail to Mike Lee Tennessee Div. of Water Pollution Control, 6th Floor L&C Annex 401 Church St. Nashville Tn. 37243-1534 or call Mike Lee at 615-532-0712 for e-mail address.
