Groups call on NC county to reject rezoning for Duke Energy project

On Monday, the Davidson County Planning Board will decide whether to rezone hundreds of acres along the Yadkin River for a new Duke Energy project. Opponents contend it will harm surrounding communities and the environment. A Duke Energy subsidiary wants to build its Davie-Davidson Energy Complex along the Yadkin River, which requires major infrastructure and rezoning approvals. Davie County officials certified two proposed methane power plants as public utilities, allowing Duke Energy to build on land zoned residential and agricultural. The decision was made without a public hearing or special use permit. Davidson County officials voted in favor of rezoning land for a liquid natural gas storage facility for heavy industrial use. A final vote is scheduled for Monday. Nicole Eastman, Yadkin Riverkeeper, argued the facility isn't a public utility and said such a project should only be built in areas zoned for heavy industrial use. "It really doesn't make sense for two massive power plants that would draw a lot of water from the Yadkin River, and also would be discharging back into the river and contributing to air pollution," Eastman stressed. If approved, it would be the largest liquefied natural gas storage facility in the corporation’s history. The

East Surry extends playoff streak with win over Wheatmore

PILOT MOUNTAIN — A career night from J.B. Davis and two key turnovers led East Surry to a 46-36 win in the first round of the 3A state playoffs. The No. 14 Cardinals never trailed No. 19 Wheatmore in the Nov. 6 game, and the only tie came at 16-16. East Surry led by as much as 24 before the Warriors scored twice in the final four minutes. East Surry has now won a playoff game in 12 consecutive seasons — the longest active streak of any Surry County football program. Davis, East Surry’s senior quarterback, posted career highs with 263 passing yards and 122 rushing yards for 385 yards of total offense. He also tied a career high with four touchdown passes to go with his two rushing scores. Davis threw for eight touchdowns across East Surry’s first nine games and now has seven in the past two weeks. Also posting a career high was Nate Kiger, who returned from injury after missing the final weeks of the regular season. The junior caught eight passes for 144 yards and two touchdowns. Kiger’s two touchdowns came on throws of 47 yards and 48 yards and were the Cardinals’ first two
