SUBJECT: CALL THE GOVERNOR DAY: Thurs. 10/15 - "No Eversource Clearcut"
Dear Friends Concerned about Eversource’s Clearcutting,
To help stop Eversource’s unnecessary clearcut of hundreds of acres in Western MA, please
Call the Governor on Thursday, 10/15!
This is our chance to build on the strong message of our petition (1000+ signatures and counting!)
This call can take just a minute or two and needn’t be stressful. Here’s everything to know:
- What to expect: The person or recording answering the phone will just ask your name, phone number, address, and your point of view. Even if it’s a recording, go ahead and tell it your statement (see below). Staff makes a list of how many calls they receive, likely without much detail. The more calls, the more likely we’ll earn attention. So making the call is more important than getting it perfect!
- Phone number: (617) 725-4005
- When to call: 9:00 to 5:00 on Thursday, 10/15
- Short sample script: I'm AGAINST Eversource's “WT-11” proposal to unnecessarily clearcut 278 acres in Western Massachusetts. I ask Governor Healey to intervene to require selective management wherever possible. I also ask that stronger statewide standards be established so that future proposals will be less destructive.
Longer script option and project background: Call the Governor page of our website

Please spread the word! The more calls, the better our chances of stopping this unnecessary destruction.
Thank you,
