Driftless Defenders

“Driftless Defenders is a grassroots coalition of citizens dedicated to preventing the construction of high-voltage transmission lines through the geologically unique Driftless Area of Wisconsin.” driftlessdefenders.com  The group was formed in May 2016 by neighbors in the Pleasant Ridge area of Dodgeville Township and rapidly expanded to include people from many townships.  Through their outreach and media efforts they are informing the public about the proposed transmission lines and explaining the reasons for their opposition.  They are working closely with Driftless Area Land Conservancy (DALC).
