Agencies listed include FERC, EPA, USACE, USFWS, NOAA, a long list of federally recognized tribes, and state conservation, natural resources, transportation, wildlife, parks, and historic preservation agencies for Alabama, Georgia, and Florida, as well as quite a few TBD (to be determined) contacts for specific counties, including, surprisingly, Tift County, Georgia.-jsq
Short Link:
I have begun calling the stakeholders on this list. Since it is a Friday, I am reaching mostly voice mail. I did get a chance to speak with John Doresky and was advised that his agency would be meeting with Sabal Trail next Friday. He was very open to hearing my concerns. I suggest everyone call and voice your concerns. We have to speak out or we will not be heard.
