Spread the word about protecting the Horsepasture River

You have joined with hundreds of North Carolinians to ask state officials to designate the Horsepasture River an "Outstanding Resource Water."

Known for its spectacular waterfalls, the Horsepasture is one of the most beautiful rivers in the state, and is a popular hiking destination near the Nantahala National Forest. But development pressures near the river are great, and the river lacks all the protections it deserves under clean water laws. That is why we need your help to spread the word about protecting one of North Carolina's last unspoiled rivers.

Take a moment to ask your friends and family to help protect the Horsepasture River.

Message Known for its spectacular waterfalls, the Horsepasture River in Western North Carolina is one of the state's most beautiful rivers. Unfortunately, the river lacks safegaurds from development and other threats. That is why I sent an email to state officials asking them extend the necessary protections to the Horsepasture River. Take a moment to join me and help to ensure the Horsepasture is protected for future generations. http://environmentnorthcarolina.org/action/cleanwater/horsepasture?id4=TAFsent ******************************************** You've been sent this email by a friend.
