What About the Mountain Valley Pipeline

Protecting mountains, rivers and streams in WV & VA

An evening of learning and action around the Mountain Valley Pipeline (MVP)

Announcement from Wild Virginia, WV Rivers Coalition, et al., March 10, 2021

Learn about the specific actions you can take this month to help stop the Mountain Valley Pipeline and protect our water.

Presenters will explain why this pipeline is so catastrophic for ecosystems, endangered species, public lands, directly-impacted communities, and the climate at large. You will have a chance to hear from directly-impacted landowners, grassroots leaders, and lawyers fighting the project.

We will share where MVP stands today, what could happen if it is put into service, and how your action is essential before March 22nd to stop that from ever occurring. Learn how to submit a public comment or motion to intervene on MVP’s request to change the crossing method for 180 streams and wetlands.

We will provide background information, talking points, and opportunities to ask questions. Your voice is a valuable and needed addition to the public record. In addition to technical comments and filings, public testimony is a crucial part of the campaign against the pipeline — especially if you have direct, personal connections to the land and water being harmed.

Whether this is your first time tuning into the MVP fight or you have resisted this project since the beginning, your voice is needed now.

Please consider joining Wild Virginia, POWHR Coalition (Protect Our Water, Heritage, Rights), Appalachian Voices and West Virginia Rivers Coalition as they explain why this pipeline is so dangerous, and what you can do about it.

This online event will take place Tuesday, March 16, from 6:30 – 7:30 PM EDT.
