If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me. Thank you for your assistance in this regard. dley W. Stepheu Enclosure cc: All parties of record Allegheny Front Alliance’s Viewpoint Descriptions for Mav 1,2009 Commission View of AES New Creek LLC Proiect and Vicini@ The viewing tour begins at the Kimble’s General Store in Scherr and then proceeds west on State Route 42/93 to Viewpoint 1. Viewpoint 1. A residence off Route 42/93 on the road leading to Mount Storm The view looking east is from an elevation of approximately 1,870 feet and provides a clear elevated view of New Creek Mountain on the western side of the ridge. To the south is the crest of Greenland Gap. Moving north is AES’s southernmost met tower, and the first turbine would be located approximately 1,500 feet north of that point. In addition, the first turbine would be one mile north of the southernmost of the nearby 500-kV transmission lines, a distance requested by Greenland Lodge to provide an adequate buffer from the Greenland Gap preservation area. Parts of Corridor H can also be seen, and the AES access road would leave Corridor H and travel from left to right up the mountain to a point where the northern transmission line crosses the ridge. From this viewpoint, the first turbine is just over two miles away. Driving Route to Viewpoint 2 After descending SR 42/93, we will turn left on SR 93 and head generally north. County Road (CR 1) begins at Scherr and continues east towards Greenland Gap, running along Patterson Creek. At Scherr, New Creek Mountain is prominent to the east. Here, the famed 800-foot Oriskany Sandstone cliffs surrounding the mountain can be seen. Leaving Scherr, farms and residences can be seen along SR 93. The proposed project site is visible from the fields skirting the left side of the road. Approximately three miles on the left is the Oakdale Church of the Brethren (CR 42-2, Oakdale Road). New Creek Mountain is visible on the east (right) side of the road. SR 93 gradually ascends Walker Ridge to an elevation of 2068 feet, approximately 0.6 mile from the Oakdale Church. Viewpoint 2. Near Walker Ridge On the right side of SR 93 is Walker Ridge Road (CR-1). The pulloff at this location provides an expansive view from southeast to northeast of New Creek Mountain’s ridgeline. Driving Route to Viewpoint 3 Continue on SR 93 (north), ascend Walker Ridge and then de CR 42-2 (Oakdale Road). Turn left, travel west approximate 0.5 mil Nearby is a gated residential community. Viewpoint 3. New Creek Lake and Site 14 off Qakdale Road and New Creek Lake, a major fishing attraction, lies at an elevation of approximately 1670 feet. Looking northeast from approximately the center of the dam provides a partial view of New Creek Mountah and the northernmost AES met tower, which is located in Mineral County. The proposed location of the northemost turbines, which would be located in Grant County, is approximately 1,700 feet south of the met tower. Driving Route to Viewpoint 4 Return to SR 93, turn left and descend the mountain on SR 93 (north). The road offers a continuous wooded vista, with Walker Ridge visible to the west and New Creek Mountain to the east. Because the fall foliage is so striking here, this route becomes a primary tourist draw as the colors emerge. SR 93 leaves Grant County and enters ineral County. At the county line, looking west (left) the Allegheny Front is visible. New Creek Mountain remains on the right side (east). The northernmost turbine would be located less than one mile from SR 93 and the county line. SR 93 passes through Laurel Dale, home to a restored gristmill and prime camping spots, just over one mile from the closest proposed turbine. At the junction of SR 93 and US 50 is the community of Claysville. From Claysville, the nearest turbine would be situated approximately four miles away. Viewpoint 4. Log Cabin and Church at Claysville Claysville is home to a restored log cabin, as well as the Claysville U&ed Methodist Church. After the congregation organized in 1849, the church was constructed in 1850 from lumber cut at a water-powered sawmill. The interior of the church features hand-finished chestnut seats. In addition to a place of worship, the building has been used as a ~~mm~nitybuilding and a school. The building is in excellent preserved condition and is eligible for the National Register of Historical Places. A state road marker identifies the area. From the adjacent cemetery and the church, New Creek Mountain is visible looking south to southeast. Dolls Gap is also visible. Driving Route to Viewpoint 5 From Claysville Church, proceed on US 50 west to the top of the Allegheny Front. This is the highest point on US 50 in Mineral County. Viewpoint 5. Skyline and Saddle Mountain The summit of US 50, at over 2800 feet in elevation and known as “Skyline,” affords a sweeping panorama of New Creek Mountain, and beyond into Virginia. Here, 2 the West Virginia Division of Highways maintains a large, paved public viewing area, which is very popular with tourists and bird watchers. Driving Route to Keyser for Lunch Leave Skyline, proceed east on US 50, return to Claysville Junction and turn left onto SR 93 - US 50, following New Creek Valley into Keyser. Denny’s appears on the right. Driving Route to Viewpoint 4 The route to Viewpoint 6 is south on Route 220, east on Route 50 and then south on Knobley Road (CR-9), also known as Ridgeville. Travel from Ridgeville on Knobley Road southwest to the Antioch community (approximately 2.2 miles). At Antioch, turn ri&t onto Grayson Gap Road (CR-6-1). Follow road signs to (CR-6-1) left (south) following Penneroil Road to the Nancy Hanks birthplace memorial. Return by the same route to the Antioch community to Knobley Road (approximately 1.4 miles). Drive south on Knobley Road (CR-9) and cross into Grant County (CR-9 turn to County Road 3). Proceeding along Knobley Road, we will pass cemeteries, old farmhouses, and the Thorn Run Inn, a bed and breakfast built in 1871. Magnificent views of the mountains and farms are abundant along the road. Viewpoint 6. rest of New Creek ountain, inacludin location of AES Meteorological Tower (designated 8784)) This location affords a view west to the Allegheny Fore, a popular hiking destination. The view will then traverse along the ridge top along portions of the Project. Driving Route to Viewpoint 7 After descending New Creek Mountain, the drive proceeds south on Knobley Road, where there breaks in the hobs provide a spectacular views of New Greek Mountain. Continue through the town of Martin and then left on Belle Babb Lane. This route runs parallel with the 500 kV transmission lines. Belle Babb Lane (CR-2) goes past a public fishing area and a dam before joining Patterson Creek Road CR-5. Turn right on Patterson Creek Road CR-5 and drive south 1.7 miles to Medley. Viewpoint 7. Medley Located on Patterson Creek Road is the community of Medley, which is eligible for listing on the National Register of Historical Places. The sloping ridge and valley renders New Creek Mountain highly visible to the west and northwest. 3 Driving Route to Viewpoint 8 Drive south on Patterson Creek Road approximately 1.8 miles. Because of the height of New Creek Mountain and the gradual slope to the east, Patterson Creek Road presents a continuous view of New Creek Mountain. Turn right (west) to CR 3-3 road to Falls. Continue west to Greenland Gap. Viewpoint 8. Greenland Gap CR-3-3 traverses the Greenland Gap, a unique geological area with sheer rock outcroppings. The Nature Conservancy maintains and preserves 250 acres of land here. Several hiking trails lead the mountain summit. Canada yew and red elderberry are found along the streams mingthrough the Gap. (Time permitting, and at the Commission’s discretion, the Commission and the parties may stop at an available roadside area here. Otherwise, ahis viewpoint will be treated as a “rolling viewpoint.”) Driving Route for Return to Sclherr The return to Schen is via Belle Babb Lane, Knobley Road and then east on Greenland Gap Road. This route passes though Greenland Gap and provides an opportunity to see the construction progress of Conidor Pi. 4 CERTIFICATE OF SERVICE I, Bradley W.

    THE CACAPON SETTLEMENT: 1749-1800 31 THE CACAPON SETTLEMENT: 1749-1800 31 5 THE CACAPON SETTLEMENT: 1749-1800 The existence of a settlement of Brethren families in the Cacapon River Valley of eastern Hampshire County in present day West Virginia has been unknown and uninvestigated until the present time. That a congregation of Brethren existed there in colonial times cannot now be denied, for sufficient evidence has been accumulated to reveal its presence at least by the 1760s and perhaps earlier. Because at this early date, Brethren churches and ministers did not keep records, details of this church cannot be recovered. At most, contemporary researchers can attempt to identify the families which have the highest probability of being of Brethren affiliation. Even this is difficult due to lack of time and resources. The research program for many of these families is incomplete, and this chapter is offered tentatively as a basis for additional research. Some attempted identifications will likely be incorrect. As work went forward on the Brethren settlements in the western and southern parts of old Hampshire County, it became clear that many families in the South Branch, Beaver Run and Pine churches had relatives who had lived in the Cacapon River Valley. Numerous families had moved from that valley to the western part of the county, and intermarriages were also evident. Land records revealed a large number of family names which were common on the South Branch, Patterson Creek, Beaver Run and Mill Creek areas. In many instances, the names appeared first on the Cacapon and later in the western part of the county.

  • Regulations Summary 2019
    WEST VIRGINIA FISHINGRegulations Summary 2019 wvdnr.gov From the Director Last year the DNR released an updated, online interactive map that provides valuable information on all aspects of fishing and hunting adventures. DNR personnel are continuing to update information and produce new, useful maps. After hearing about the need from anglers in an online survey, DNR personnel collected lake depth data and processed new bathymetry maps for 35 lakes across the state. These maps are now available on the interactive fishing map and downloadable to print or take with you on your mobile device. Also, anglers can now access the real-time streamflow conditions from the U.S. Geological Survey on our interactive fishing map. The real-time information allows anglers to check on flow and make decisions about whether fishing conditions are ideal before heading out to a stream or river. Visit wvdnr.gov/gis for more details and links to the interactive map and other map pages. You helped fund this project through the Sport Fish Restoration Program, using excise taxes on selected fishing equipment and boat fuel. I encourage you to take advantage of West Virginia’s abundant natural resources and go fishing every chance you get. And take a friend or family member with you. It’s a great way to relax and enjoy each other’s company. Stephen S. McDaniel, DNR Director DISTRICT OFFICES Main Office - South Charleston, WV 25303 324 4th Avenue Fish Management − Mark T.
