REV is working together with the VT Small Hydro Association (VSHA) to promote small hydro power in Vermont. Here is what the VSHA is doing:
VSHA is initiating a grass-roots effort to bring small-scale hydro power to Vermont cities and towns. With signatures from at least 5% of registered voters, a town can be on its way toward energy independence. Generally, signatures are due at the Town Clerk's office by the middle of January in order to be included on the 2007 Town Meeting ballot. If you succeed at getting this initiative on your community's Town Meeting agenda, please contact Anne (astevens at sover.net) to let her know who specifically is working on the initiative. Thanks!
Hydro Referendum Petition - Use this form to gather signatures to get hydro on the Town Meeting ballot. It's a 12K PDF file.
Vermont Communities that Own Dams - Here is a list that Community Hydro has put together of cities, towns, fire districts and municipal utilities in Vermont that own dams.
We've created a brochure to help you spread the
word about small hydro. You can
download it in two versions:
Standard PDF - This is an Adobe Acrobat reader file (233K) that will print nicely
on 8.5"x11" paper. It's got all the details on the benefits of small
hydro. And it includes language to help get our referendum supporting small hydro
(see below) on your Town Meeting ballot.
Publisher Version - This is the same brochure as a Microsoft Publisher file (470K). If you have Publisher, you can edit the brochure to meet your own community's needs. You might also find that your local print shop can help with the editing as well.
