Here is the Usage Report from WV Public News Service. Good quote from Jim. This is what we want to see next year when we are paying for this on our nickel. I fed them another story on private land disturbance/abuse from an Allegheny powerline ROW and that will air with quotes from the Landowner and Duane Nichols. best,paul

Dear West Virginia News Service supporters,

Attached is the usage report for a story related to Global Warming/Air Quality that was aired on 11/26/2007.

As you will see from the attached report, the story entitled Proposed Power Line Could "Zap" WV With More Pollution was aired by at least 29 stations. Plus 18 stations took both soundbites and ran at least two versions of the story.

These numbers are conservative since we know stories are commonly run 3-4 times on each station during the course of a day

As always, keep sending story ideas to our producer:

The banner or story summary for this story is:

Kingwood, WV – Today (MONDAY) is the last public hearing for a proposed power line that would carry electricity from West Virginia coal plants to East Coast customers. James Kotcon (COAT-son) with the Sierra Club in West Virginia says the state would get all of the pollution, and few of the benefits.
