Sign our petition to STOP the depletion of our drinking water
AGL Resources, Inc. of Georgia proposes to withdraw 3 million gallons of fresh drinking water per day for an unlimited amount of time from the Chicot Aquifer to create salt cavern storage for natural gas. This water will never be recycled back into the water table and will be wasted, leaving the Chicot water level dangerously low in the Iberia and Vermilion parish areas, and making worse the already present issue of salt water intrusion.
Take action by signing our petition and letter to the Louisiana Mineral Board to help the citizens of Louisiana fight corporate interests and protect their drinking water supply, and to prevent the storage of high volumes of hazardous gases in the middle of their community of over 4,000 residents.
