The Mountainkeeper claims the project:
* Does not result from a regional or statewide planning process;
* Is not required to address electric system reliability concerns, and
* Fails to consider new programs designed to reduce energy demands through conservation.
The environmental organization has posted a list of talking points for opponents to use in arguing against the project and a schedule of public hearings that are under way and will end on Nov. 6.
