The Mountain Ridge Protection Act Alliance is a group of concerned citizens from North Carolina who want to see the 1983 Mountain Ridge Protection Act remain strong and we will make sure that this state law continues to protect our highest ridges from commercial development, including industrialization from commercial wind plants. The wind industry is trying to weaken this law and our group plans on fighting them and all who go with them, every step of the way. This alliance is joining with like-minded concerned citizens and groups from this state and other states in protecting our cherished heritage and mountain ridges.
The founder of this group is Cynthia Hardy Wadsworth of Ashe County.
