John,
The troubled Mountain Valley Pipeline (MVP) company has spent years endangering communities throughout Appalachia and damaging the region’s water with their destructive gas pipeline project. But there is still time to stop them.
Last year, federal courts found that the United States Forest Service (USFS) and other agencies improperly granted the MVP approvals to cross the Jefferson National Forest for a second time and asked the agency to again review the MVP’s threats to water resources in the forest.
USFS is accepting public comments on its updated analysis of Mountain Valley Pipeline’s environmental impacts through February 6th.
The Mountain Valley Pipeline is a climate and ecological nightmare. Construction has resulted in improper and inadequate sediment and erosion control practices, leading to more than 500 water quality violations in Virginia and West Virginia.
The project is behind schedule, over budget, and continually losing permits because it can’t be built safely. Mountain Valley Pipeline has racked up millions of dollars in fines due to all of its past violations.
Food & Watch Watch, along with our allies and supporters like you, have been fighting the Mountain Valley Pipeline for years. Because of our work together, we have delayed this dangerous project and prevented Big Oil & Gas from forcing its approval through Congress.
The need to stop building out fracked gas infrastructure like the Mountain Valley Pipeline has never been more urgent.
Food & Water Watch and its affiliated organization, Food & Water Action, are advocacy groups with a common mission to protect our food, water and climate.
