Welcome to Spectrabusters!

This site is a gathering place for those opposed to the natural gas pipeline proposed by Sabal Trail Transmissions LLC, which might run from Alabama to central Florida through Southwest Georgia. Sabal Trail is a joint venture of Spectra Energy and NextEra Energy, the parent company of Florida Power and Light (FPL). This pipeline would feed an FPL power plant in Florida for no benefit to citizens of Alabama or Georgia, while tearing a 100 foot wide right of way through all three states. There’s no excuse for another natural gas pipeline when solar power is cheaper and brings jobs and energy.

Citizens and land owners in multiple counties and states are working together to stop this unnecessary pipeline.

Every voice counts.

I am very hopeful that our county commissioners will act. There were a few very concerned citizens who attended the meeting tonight. I am encouraging everyone to become involved. Every voice counts.

Please visit the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) and file a comment to register your objection to the pipeline. I suggest you also object to the heavy handed way Sabal Trail is threatening property owners with Eminent Domain.

Do not sign anything given to you by the pipeline companies. Do not be BULLIED.

I would love to have an event Continue reading Every voice counts. →
