I am voting against propsed gas plant. This is not a good fit for our community
here are concerns about the proposed combustion turbine plant and storage facility near Ashland City. The particulants that are dispersed into the air are harmful to people as well as the water that will become contaminated and used for drinking. I live near this facility where it is planned to be built and MY FAMILY AND I will be breathing the fallout. Byproducts are harmful to our environment and increase risks of cancer. The smells are also bad. This also causes the value of residential property to go down near these facilities. This is not wanted here. Sell the property and look else where to more rural locations. Please be considerate of human beings first before blind eyes to long term health risks and self-service. negative Brandt Holt 37035 Please do not build a methane gas plant; pipeline and battery storage at this proposed site! All of Pleasant View and most of north Cheatham gets its water supply from Sycamore Creek. I would not want this type of plant near my source of drinking water. If this is to mostly benefit the residents and businesses of Davidson County, build the facility there and leave our country side for us to enjoy it's beauty and not ruin it for us and future generations! We do not want the ugly, polluting structure in Cheatham County! negative Paulette Cothern 37146

Cheatham County Generation Site_#114 I believe this is needed in Cheatham County. Found what I understand we receive our water the stream around the county. I believe that the plant will put our water in harms way. I would like to see plant move to our community. negative Kevin Durr

People are basically repeating what somebody says. Don't let facts get in the way of opinions. There are as many proven facts as there are somebody says. Do your research and prove facts from fiction.

These gas plants and pipelines would emit harmful pollutants that threaten air and water, risk lethal explosions and could cause property loss for landowners. This gas build would also fail to deliver for the region’s workers and economy. While the Cumberland Fossil Plant has previously employed over 250 people, TVA’s proposed gas alternative would only create about 25 to 35 permanent jobs. A recent study commissioned by Appalachian Voices shows that clean energy is a reliable and cost effective replacement that would create far more jobs, providing a permanent boost to local economies. Choose renewable energy, long-term jobs and economic development for Cheatham County! negative Nicolas Dobbratz 37082

We live in a small town . A quiet country setting. Here is no place for an industrial noisy, dangerous, polluting company. Go to Nashville or an industrial park. Not in the middle of our farms and our peace and quiet. This will be more harmful than good. We don't want you here to pollute our waters, harm our farmland, animals and our people negative Lisa Forsythe

Cheatham County Generation Site_#107 I don’t believe this site should be constructed so closed to residential area. Find alternatives ways of getting power then this. Find a more natural way. Move out to a more rural area. Not in Nashvilles. Back yard. negative Connie Pauley 37015

Frustrated with the entire 1st statement above to leave a comment. Attempting to push this through with very little notice to the community and residents isn't the best way to begin a proposal. That in itself proves only that so much more research and community involvement is needed. Concerned with the lines running to the site as well as the disruption and possible destruction to the land, waterway and residents. Have other locations been proposed? Where were they? And reasons not locating your site there? If we oppose and TVA is not concerned (basically stated in the above statement regarding leaving a comment) how exactly does TVA propuse our, residents, voices are heard? negative Lora Jarrett 37015 This Site is near my home and near where my family get their drinking water. we are totally against this site. TVA purchased this and was hoping to build”in secret”. TVA does not care about the citizens of this county, its all about money and whats best for TVA. Our county would not benefit at all from this but we would suffer from containments. The citizens of this county will fight against this. TVA should have looked for an area with no population and not near water that is the drinkingwater of thousands. TVA leave our area. we were here before you! negative Wendy Case 37015

If the EPA is in charge of review and site testing how are we to believe their results? They are being sued by 10 states for poor testing tools and results on wood stoves. That area of the river is well maintained by fisher people and hunters. It is close to a girlscout camp of 400 acres. Bald eagles fish there and nest are moving in closer. I really have issues of a construction site in that location. The batteries are a terrible idea as once on fire they burn. Please don’t kill the sucker fish in that area. negative Robert Fuller 37015

TVA is only replacing one of the two units at Cumberland, then running a new pipeline to a different site to build a second unit? The obvious question is why not build a second unit at Cumberland, it has to be lower cost (only need one pipeline, staffing costs for two units on one site has to be lower). It would appear that transmission capacity must exist at Cumberland, since it handles the existing plant. As to TVA building battery storage, that could be avoided by requiring wind & solar providers to have on-site storage for a minimum of 24 hours of production and have the output dispatchable by TVA. As a side benefit, it makes the true cost of renewable energy more transparent (providers will need to price in storage costs), rather than the cost of intermittency being buried in the grid operators costs. neutral Stephen Black 37178
