Division of Water Resources:
The damage that will be done to the land, creeks, wetlands, rivers, groundwater, life that lives in these waters
and lands, water table, human health, physical and mental, will be exponential compared to any perceived use
of this Atlantic Coast Pipeline. It may cause all this damage and just sit empty forever because the need for it is
not there. The need for natural gas has remained steady for a long time, regardless of what the expensive ads
from Duke and Dominion tell people. There are more jobs for people working in green fuel production now
than fossil fuels, and will be greater every year. The selfishness of these industries to try to push their dying
product through instilling fear of running out, to be willing to do the environmental damage, ruin land that
has been in families for hundreds of years, go through tribal lands, ruin our waters with sedimentation,
erosion, ruining precious wetlands that can’t be repaired…is reprehensible. As a proud and hopeful citizen of
NC, family here since late 1700s, I ask you to deny the 401 permit for the Atlantic Coast Pipeline.
I thank you for your consideration,
