Proposed Shenandoah Mountain National Scenic Area
SSVC has endorsed the Shenandoah Mountain Proposal, and several members of our chapter maintain trails on Shenandoah Mountain.  If you have any interest in adopting a trail or working with a SSVC trail crew on Shenandoah Mountain, contact Lynn Cameron.
 
Visit Friends of Shenandoah Mountain's web site to learn more about the proposal. 
 

Proposed Dominion Atlantic Coast Pipeline
SSVC voted unanimously to oppose Dominion's Atlantic Coast Pipeline route. 

Position:  SSVC of PATC opposes the proposed Dominion Atlantic Coast Pipeline route because of its potential impact on the Appalachian Trail and National Park lands on the Blue Ridge and on the Shenandoah Mountain area of the George Washington National Forest (GWNF), both of which that have outstanding scenic, ecological and recreational values.   See the announcement for our decision for a rationale and photos taken along the pipeline route.

Read SSVC's Letter to FERC and our letter to the GWNF regarding Dominion's request for a special use permit to survey for the Atlantic Coast Pipeine.
