Updated: Join Delaware Riverkeeper Network For A Week Of Action To STOP LNG #DRBCNoLNG

Update: 

Watch The Delaware River Basin Commission LNG VOTE, Meeting 10:30AM Wednesday, December 9th #DRBCnoLNG!

Resolution by the Civic League for New Castle County and DelCOG: read it HERE. 

Speak up and speak out!

The Delaware River Basin Commission (DRBC) is expected to hold a final vote this Wed., Dec. 9 at 10:30 am on the disastrous LNG export terminal proposed in Gibbstown, NJ. We need to show the DRBC Governors (and especially Governor Murphy) that the public is watching!  

There is no further opportunity for public comment on the Gibbstown LNG permit before the DRBC Commissioners address it during their Business Meeting. After the meeting, there is a public comment session where people who have signed up in advance can speak their mind (usually 2-3 minutes each). If you want to sign up you need to register for the Waiting List by 5pm on Tuesday (tomorrow, Dec. 8). 

Sign up here to make a public comment at the DRBC meeting: https://www.eventbrite.com/.../business-meeting-of-the....  

The DRBC’s meeting is a virtual meeting due to COVID. The agenda for the meeting states that “possible” (their emphasis) action could be taken on the proposed Gibbstown LNG Export Terminal Dock 2. We do not know for certain – they could vote to disapprove, approve, or they may continue the “stay”. It’s even possible they will say nothing about it if their review is still underway. Even if you don’t sign up to speak afterwards, you can join the zoom meeting to watch what they do. 

It would be great if lots of us attend the meeting as witnesses - lots of people attending will make a strong statement in itself, even if you can’t speak or be seen. The number counter will go up as we all join the meeting and they will know  

THE PUBLIC WILL BE WATCHING!

From the Delaware Riverkeeper Network ~

All this week, the

Delaware Riverkeeper Network

and coalition organizations are all banding together to fight the #GibbstownLNGexport terminal proposed for South Jersey. This extremely dangerous proposal pushed forward by the Trump administration to transport LNG by truck and rail, through dense urban areas puts many lives in harm's way. Not only would it endanger communities, but it also would have a detrimental impact on the Delaware River and exacerbate Climate Change conditions.

Please join us for a WEEK of ACTION to #StopLNGexport! Each day we will be using a different means to get the attention of the Governors of the Delaware River Basin Commission who'll have the final say on whether the project gets built. We need them to VOTE NO!

#stopLNG #NoLNGexport

Go to the Week of Action Facebook Event to see how to make a quick call (or two) to the Governors!

We are telling the Governors and the Army Corps, that, as watershed stewards for the DRBC, we expect them to protect the water, habitats, and communities of the Watershed rather than vote to serve the interests of a special interest that wants to exploit despite the devastating impacts and threats LNG entails. We are not a sacrifice zone and we will not tolerate environmental injustice!

THANK YOU for taking part in the Week of Action to STOP LNG.
