Want to help oppose the Lambert MVP/MVP Southgate Compressor Station by making a powerful public comment? Join our ZOOM Public Comment Party on March 4, at 6:00 PM EST and learn how to generate and file a public comment before March 10th.
The proposed Lambert Compressor Station, a 27,756-horsepower fossil fuel facility would emit carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides and formaldehyde into the air of yet another environmental justice community. Your voice is needed to say NO to this permit. Please REGISTER AT THE LINK HERE and save your registration link in order to attend! POWHR is partnering with Appalachian Voices, CCAN, ARTivism Virginia and others to host this event.
You can view and share the event on POWHR’s Facebook. (You still need to register via the Zoom link in order to attend. Replying “going” on Facebook will not give you the link. When you register you will receive both video link and call-in information.)
