The Mission of the Concerned Citizens of Giles County is to promote democracy and to protect the natural resources of our county now, and for future generations.

We believe that people living in all communities have the right to an active role in any project or activity that may threaten their health, well-being, or quality of life.  The citizens of Giles County have been denied the right of public participation in the decision to dump toxic fly ash in the flood plain of the New River.  The Cumberland Park Project, an UNLINED site for fly ash disposal, will leach into the New River.
