Subject:Carefully Consider the ACP
I am a resident of Robeson County and I work about 2 miles away from the proposed end of the
Atlantic Coast Pipeline. The application for 401 Water Quality Certification for the ACP doesn't include
enough details about which streams would be jeopardized by trenching, cofferdams, or in-stream
blasting. Without site-specific details, it's impossible to know what the water quality impacts would be.
The application hasn't shown that the Atlantic Coast Pipeline won't pollute our waterways. This
project would be very expensive to taxpayers (who would see rate increases to finance it), this
pipeline would affect forests, wildlife habitats, wetlands, and communities of color, including the
Lumbee tribe here in Pembroke, even if that damage is temporary or “mitigated,” as required. Please
carefully consider this application as you would if your own two-year-old daughter's drinking water
depended on it.

v/r,
Brittany Sandefur
