Dinosaur Valley - Paluxy River Protection Alliance

We support reliable electricity, but not at the cost of Glen Rose. Protect the Paluxy River, Dinosaur Valley, and our community’s natural beauty.

The Dinosaur-Longshore line is a high-capacity transmission line that Oncor intends to build as part of the Public Utility Commission of Texas’ (PUCT) Permian Basin Reliability Plan. We understand how important reliable electricity is for families and businesses. We are not trying to stop Oncor from building their line. We are only asking them not to destroy Glen Rose in the process. One proposed

route would run through Glen Rose, allowing Oncor to build towers 200-feet wide in the riverbed, destroying dinosaur tracks and clearcutting trees around Dinosaur Valley State Park. This is the only route that impacts a state park. The Dinosaur-Longshore line will not benefit the people of Glen Rose. It is being built to benefit the Permian Basin area of West Texas, not our local community, and it will not bring new jobs to the area. We cannot stop Oncor from building the line, but we can advocate for a route that does not destroy Glen Rose. Oncor has two other potential routes that do not run through Glen Rose. Choosing either would save our priceless dinosaur tracks and preserve the natural beauty of this unique part of Texas.

Does adjacent to a Texas state park in the 2nd smallest county in Texas qualify as a "rural neighborhood"?

Asking for a friend. 🦖🦕

Abbott previously outlined a broad regulatory framework around data centers amid backlash from rural communities around their impact on residential neighborhoods.

🚨Representative Helen Kerwin announces the Texas State Parks Protection Act to establish a buffer zone around all 89 state parks to protect them from large scale industrial development and infrastructure.

Given what we know about habitat destruction, risks to the Paluxy and the dinosaur tracks, and light and noise pollution, our hope is for a 5 MILE BUFFER ZONE. 🦖🦕

Next to Dinosaur Valley State Park is no place for a transmission line, and it is certainly no place for a data center.

NOW IS THE TIME TO PROTECT ALL TEXAS STATE PARKS!
