Stop the Northern Access 2016 Pipeline
WHAT: Rally at National Fuel Headquarters
WHEN: Wednesday, July 27, 3pm - 6pm
WHERE: 6363 Main St., Williamsville
The Pendleton Action Team and the Sierra Club Niagara Group are joining up to fight the building of a 96 mile fracked gas pipeline, compressor and dehydration stations proposed by National Fuel for Western NY.
Earlier this year, NYS DEC officials rejected the Constitution Pipeline Project, citing damage that it would do to water supplies along the pipeline route.
On that basis alone, the proposed Northern Access Project should not be permitted since it would cross 180 streams, 270 wetlands and 7 ponds in Cattaraugus, Allegany, and Erie Counties.
To add insult to potential injury, the gas would not only cross the Niagara River, it will be exported to Canada.
Furthermore, we need to incentivize infrastructure for Clean, Renewable Energy, not for dirty fossil fuels that cause carbon pollution and global warming.
Check out the Pendleton Action Team on Facebook for more information.

Information on the proposed pipeline and associated infrastructure can be found at National Fuel.
