Proposed Interstate brings opposition




The Stop I3 Coalition opposes a proposed interstate highway that would connect Chattanooga, TN with Asheville, NC by going right through the middle of several southern Appalachian mountain trout streams.
The road would cross many high quality streams including trout streams and streams feeding into Fontana Lake, Lake Santeelah, and the Valley River.
Several area chapters of Trout Unlmited have joined with the Stop I3 Coalition to voice their concerns.
