Anti-nuclear activists of Kudzu
Alliance are stepping up efforts to
mobilize opposition to construction of
the Shearon Harris Nuclear Power Plant
in Wake County near Chapel Hill, Kudzu
organizers say.
"We're going to be pursuing a more
aggressive direct-action policy," said
Kudzu member Melanie Scheller. "There
are still a lot of people who don't even
know Shearon Harris exists "
Kudzu members are planning an anti
nuclear rally at the N.C. Utilities
Commission hearings on energy
conservation Sept. 6 in Raleigh.
The group will hold an energy
conservation seminar at the Jaycee
Center in Raleigh Aug. 31, Scheller said.
"A real commitment to conservation
could reduce demand for electricity to the
point where we don't even need nuclear
power," Kudzu organizer Amy Arrendell
said.
"Conservation is much more desirable
than nuclear power," she said. "There are
cheaper and safer energy alternatives."
Unlike anti-nuclear activists in
Seabrook, N.H., Kudzu members say
peaceful protest methods are more
effective in persuading government

leaders that nuclear power is not the
answer to the nationwide energy crunch.
"We feel than non-violent, direct
action tactics picketing, demonstrating
and leafleting can put pressure on
public officials to make them realize that
the nuclear power question is an issue for
the people to decide," Arrendell said.
"The people have to pay for the plants
and live with whatever level of radiation
may be emitted during the transporting
and storage of nuclear wastes," she said.
But Kudzu Alliance supporters have
not ruled out civil disobedience as an
effective way of getting their message
through, Scheller said.
"Members of Kudzu Alliance tend to
be law abiding citizens," Scheller said.
"We have respect for government and
we're willing to go through the legal
mechanisms.
"But when it becomes obvious that
governmental processes are not
responsive to the needs of the people,
then an act of civil disobedience is apt to
occur," she said.
"Our feeling is anger because we are
not getting a fair response from the
government or from CP&L (Carolina

"We want to channel that anger into
stopping the Shearon Harris Nuclear
Power Plant," she said.
Kudzu members plan to rally residents
near the nuclear plant site against the
project, Arrendell said She said the anti
nuclear group will set up tables at UNC
and other campuses to distribute
literature on nuclear power.
Other Kudzu activities may include
enacting a mock truck shipment of
nuclear fuel to illustrate the routes used to
transport waste materials, Arrendell said.
The Conservation Council of North
Carolina has appealed the Shearon
Harris construction permit to the U.S.
Nuclear Regulatory Commission. Kudzu
leaders said they are asking the
commission to hold the required public
hearing in North Carolina.

make bicycling
safer, easier
By ANNETTE FULLER
Staff Writer
Chapel Hill eyefists will pedal easier
in Chapel Hill this fall. The Chapel Hill
Planning Department has implemented
a system to allow cyclists more room on
the road during peak traffic hours.
The new system will provide bike
lines on Cameron Avenue, behind
Granville Towers,' between South
Columbia and Graham Street. Cars
may park only on one side of the street
during certain hours. Violators will be
towed.
The bike lane on Cameron will be on
the south side of the street from 7-10
a.m. to accomodate incoming bicycle
traffic and on the 'north side from 3-6
p.m. for outgoing bikers. Liz Rooks, a
Chapel Hill city planner, said the plan
gives cyclists part of the right-hand lane
during peak hours.
There will be monitors stationed on
Cameron Avenue to strictly enforce the
towing rule.

streets are nart of a hikeways concept
that was approved in February 1977. A
November 1976 bond referendum made
funds available.
"The bike lanes are especially
beneficial to residents of Carrboro and
the west end of town," Ms. Rooks said.
"The Cameron Avenue bike lane is the
first in a series of implementations to
eliminate dangerous bicyle riding in
Chapel Hill."
