To whom it may concern ,

I am writing this letter to formally voice my concern and opposition to the construction of the Atlantic
Coast Pipeline. This pipeline will be destructive to the environment, to fragile ecosystems including the Blue
Ridge Mountains, and to hundreds of acres of forested wetlands in N.C. This project will affect many Native
American tribes in Virginia and North Carolina, and potentially affect or damage numerous historical, sacred,
and culturally significant sites to our tribes. This includes Monacan, Tuscarora, Lumbee, Nottoway,
Chickahominy, Haliwa- Saponi people and many more.
Further , this project is not necessary. It is for profit only. We ask that the construction of this pipeline be
rejected. We ask that you respect the wishes of Native people. We ask simply, that you put people before profit.
Thank you for your time.

Sincerely ,
Dwayne Painter
