Please prevent the Atlantic Coast Pipeline from going forward. It would destroy more acres of wetlands than the
state of North Carolina permits for the entire state in a year. These wetlands provide natural water filtration. It
would cost more to build water treatment facilities to provide the same service that the wetlands are providing
for free. Furthermore, the pipeline would seriously impact the quality of life of people living nearby, as well as
endangered species living in bodies of water affected by the pipeline. The destruction caused by the pipeline
would far outweigh any benefits. Please prevent this destruction from happening.
