Greetings,
Upgrading
your kitchen
or bath over
the next few
months? MVP
can help you
upgrade what
is outside
those
beautiful
windows and
doors. MVP
hopes to
protect and
improve the
air and
water
quality in
your yard in
2007.
Please
consider MVP
near the top
of your 2007
home
improvements
list.
The
Winchester,
Meadow
Vista, Lake
Combie,
Naturewood,
Darkhorse
and Lake of
the Pines
region needs
its day in
court in
2007, and we
desperately
need your
help to make
it happen.
Although we
have raised
almost
$75,000 of
the original
$100,000
envisioned
for this
fight,
Chevreaux
has decided
the best way
to counter
us is to
legally,
although
somewhat unethically,
use
litigation
ploys that
greatly
increase our
costs.
Sadly to
say, this
means that
much more
money is
needed right
now to pay
our existing
bills and
keep up the
good fight.
As neighbors
we all want
to see this
struggle
through and
now hope
that our
community
could
somehow dig
down deep
once again
(or for the
first time)
to protect
your house,
health and
way of
life.
We need to
continue the
fight
against the
asphalt
plant in
Placer
County
courts... To
force Placer
and Nevada
counties to
act against
the dangers
of existing
air and
water
pollution
levels in
our
community...
To end the
destructive
practice of
ignoring
important
limitations
of
conditional
use permits
along the
Bear River
and
surrounding
region...
Our ability
to fight
this fight
comes down
to one
thing: you.
Over the
next few
weeks, we're
running a
fundraising
drive to
raise the
critical
funds we
need to
continue our
important
struggle. As
this year
begins,
I'm asking
you to
affirm your
commitment
to your
backyard and
our local
environment
by becoming
a 2007 MVP
supporter
today.
As an
IRS approved
tax
deductible
501(c)(3)
non-profit
public
charity, we
need every
single penny
to survive
and continue
serving the
communities
that we
represent.
That's why
your
continued
support is
so crucial
to us right
now.
Here are
just a few
of the
efforts
your gift
will make
possible:
-
Halting
the
Meadow
Vista
asphalt
plant.
Chevreaux
Aggregates
Incorporated
is
literally
blowing
the top
off a
mountain
to get
to rock
mineral
deposits
deep
within
the
earth...
The
practice
lines
their
corporate
pockets,
but also
destroys
our
mountain
river
and
habitat
in the
Meadow
Vista
region.
The Bear
River
canyon
has
turned
into a
huge
polluted
factory
where
liquid
cement,
sand,
propane,
tar and
oil are
trucked
in and
mixed
with
crushed
rock to
make
road
products
for
construction
projects
in the
Sacramento
valley.
Water is
diverted
from the
Bear
River to
wash
limestone
products
while
sediments
are
dumped
back
into
ponds
along
the
river
and
beyond.
Your
support
can help
us to
continue
our
fight to
stop the
expansion
of this
local
factory
in our
community.
-
Compelling
the EPA
to
regulate
increased
dangerous
diesel
pollution
in a non
attainment
region.
The
Meadow
Vista
and
surrounding
regions
are
above
EPA
established
levels
for air
pollution
and are
currently
high
enough
to cause
serious
developmental
and
neurological
problems
for
growing
children.
With
your
support,
we're
making
sure the
EPA does
its job
and
enforces
the
clean
air act
with
meaningful
restrictions
on this
dangerous
pollutant
in our
community.
-
Fighting
the
growing
problem
of local
burning.
As we
flex our
litigation
muscle
in the
fight
against
diesel
pollution
and the
asphalt
plant,
MVP
hopes to
educate
the
surrounding
communities
in
limited
legal
burning.
As our
density
has
increased,
the
burning
of wet
materials
has
increased;
resulting
in
pollution
levels
beyond
"spare
the air
levels"
enforced
in the
Sacramento
and Bay
Area
regions.
In all of
this and
more, we
need your
help to
continue
now!
In this
important
year, there
are many
critical
opportunities
to be
seized.
Please help
us continue
the fight
for a
cleaner,
healthier
natural
region in
2007 by
becoming an
MVP
supporter
today!
Help us
reach our
goal:
Help us get the
word out by
forwarding
this email
to your
neighbors.
