The Great Bay estuarine system is already environmentally compromised. The SRC proposed jet-plow method of burying the intended cable under Little Bay with further degrade this valuable resource. Please do not stop the fight against the Seacoast Reliability Project.

Alternatives are available and the project does not address our 'reliability' needs. In the long term, 10+ years, I doubt that the capacity is even necessary.

We must realize that this Reliability Project is not a one-time, tentative disruption to our seacoast towns and Great Bay Estuary. It is change that will have an enormous effect on us and our environment forever.

A blatant use of power by industry with potential harm to the environment and properties along the proposed route of the power line.

We live by Hamil Brook with various frog and wildlife species. We are against the larger power lines in our neighborhood.

The pathway for this project through our Town was chosen without full transparency, without our original questions answered, with a flawed Environmental Impact Study. There was a lack of awareness and vigilance early in this Project and we need to continue to fight this decision to run these lines through wetlands, our backyards, and under Little Bay. Eversource has other “least impact” routes.

Do we really need more power from "away"? If everyone did their part to reduce demand and invest in renewable energy we'd all be better off.

It’s disheartening that a scenic National Estuary and local scenic road are slated to to be degraded... let alone the numerous homes that will obscenely impacted. The incremental industrialization of our once beautiful community is affecting economic and emotional value of our town.

It’s time to put our environment first. Natural resources are limited. Money can’t be the ruling factor in all big business decisions anymore. .

The town of Durham has a history of fighting against big business to protect the environment. Why not now?

protect our historic land, protect our historic resources and artifacts, protect Durham !!!
Please appeal the SEC decision. Durham deserves no less.
I’m so disappointed that the town has supported this project.
Stop it corporations!
This is what democracy looks like! Residents and supporters need to speak up and speak out! Thank you for creating this petition!
This project is a disaster to the residents and the town; please implore the town council to proceed with the appeal.
Preserve our Estuary! Pursue the alternative route for the Project!
