FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Valdosta, December 9, 2013—What’s been done and what can be done to stop a
natural gas pipeline proposed to gash through here for the profit of companies far away. It’s not just a federal issue: there are things every state and local government and citizen can do to prevent this safety and property value hazard.
When:
7 PM to 9 PM

Phone: (229) 671-2442
Why: Spectra Energy
proposes
a hundred-foot-wide gash through our lands for their huge
36 inch Sabal Trail gas pipeline from Alabama through
Georgia to feed Florida Power and Light (FPL) for no benefit
to local citizens. A one-time payment is nowhere near
adequate for permanent destruction and hazards when FPL and
Spectra would profit forever.
