OUR MISSION STATEMENT:

The mission of our association is to promote, protect and preserve the picturesque area that surrounds South Bristol and the Naples Valley. By doing so, we hope to support one of our region’s strongest economic assets – the scenic hillsides and natural beauty of the landscape.

We currently oppose the installation of a 100-foot wide swath of power lines 16 miles long, 65 feet in the air. We believe this RG&E-NYSEG plan risks harming an already weak economy and poses a threat to the environment.

HOW YOU CAN HELP

You can help! Stand with us. Act now.

Tell RGE-NYSEG to find a better solution.
If you care about the look, feel and future of the Naples Valley and the Bristol Hills, please join us.

All are welcome to join Naples Valley Bristol Hills Association in our mission to protect the Naples Valley and Bristol Hills. To join our association or for more information, please contact us at: nvbhagroup@gmail.com
We love this area and want to preserve its beauty and value. Many of us call this area home. Some of us grew up here and many are raising our families here. Others have moved here for the quality of life or to enjoy a second home. For many thousands more, Naples and the Bristol Hills are a place to come to spend a day or more — for fishing, camping, skiing, hiking, hunting or just enjoying a drive in the country with a stop for grape pie.

NYSEG Covers Up Alternative Bids in Favor of Spanish Company Takeover

At least the New York State PSC (Public Service Commission) is not sleeping while Energy East, parent of NYSEG (New York State Electric & Gas) seeks to sell out to a foreign owner. See PSC holds off approval of Energy East-Iberdrola deal in today’s Press & Sun-Bulletin.

The PSC is digging and has found there were two other offers for Energy East. But the big guns at Energy East don’t want to disclose who, or what, those offers were. I wonder why? Could it be the other offers lacked some of the gold in the golden parachutes the people at the top of Energy East will get from Iberdrola? You can be sure the people at the top are looking out for themselves and themselves only, and don’t care a wit for the workers or the ratepayers. No doubt they will move out of the area once this deal is done, meaning they won’t have to live under the higher rates that will surely come as a result of their actions.
