LMRA president applauds success of Treasured Mile program
I am very happy to report that the LMRA Treasured Mile program introduced in October 2016 has proven to be very successful. All of the 28 islands owned by Alabama Power Company have been adopted, as have 35 of the 78 segments of shoreline in the program.
