Sen. Burr: No OLF near wildlife refuge

Republican U.S. Sen. Richard Burr has added his voice to a growing list of N.C. politicians from both parties who oppose the Navy’s planned outlying landing field near the Pocosin Lakes National Wildlife Refuge in Washington and Beaufort counties on environmental, economic and safety grounds. The senator’s office sent out the following message and a link to Sen. Burr’s letter to Secretary of the Navy Donald C. Winter Monday afternoon:
“Today Senator Richard Burr sent a letter to the Secretary of the Navy Donald C. Winter rejecting the Navy’s plan to build the Outlying Landing Field (OLF) on Site C in Washington County. Reactions from the series of public hearings that have been held in eastern North Carolina over the past four weeks reaffirmed Burr’s own concerns over the plan. Placing the OLF at Site C would negatively affect North Carolina’s environment and economy and could needlessly risk the safety of Navy pilots. This led Burr to conclude that Site C in Washington County is not a viable option for the OLF.”
