Manchin's Zombie Deal: USACE comment

[orthoclad]

There is still time to make a comment to the US Army Corps Of Engineers about the often-defeated zombie pipeline, the Mountain Valley Pipeline, aka Manchin's Dirty Deal, which keeps lurching back from its grave. The public comment period for the MVP's request for a new Clean Water Act permit to cross about 600 mountain streams with a 42" gas line is open until Feb 25.

The more I learn about this travesty the more horrified I get. The link below gives an easy-to-use online form with a talking point template which will deliver your customized comment to the ACE via email. Numbers count. Edit the text in the form box a little or a lot to make your opposition known.

If you want to go down the rabbit hole, there's lots of material online from lots of orgs fighting this thing. A couple good resources:

I hope they lose the permit and give up this time. There is a lot of well-organized opposition.

I don't do facebook, thanks for distributing.
