Dear Division of Water Resources,

I am a North Carolina resident and landowner. I am worried about the Atlantic Coast Pipeline and the harm it would
cause to our environment and the communities who would live near it, which historically are often marginalized
communities, lower-income, and communities of color.

The construction of the pipeline would harm nearly 37,000 feet of 326 waterbodies and at least 467.7 acres of valuable
wetlands. Our wetlands, streams, and rivers are an important part of our heritage and this pipeline could put them in
danger.

It's also concerning to me that the application put forward by Atlantic Coast Pipeline LLC doesn’t provide enough
information for DEQ to make a sound decision on whether or not to move forward with the pipeline.

I hope that DEQ will reject this application and the pipeline all together.

Thank you.

Sincerely,

Lauren Biehl
