What you need to do NOW to oppose Duke’s Proposed Natural Gas Pipeline Routes
Duke Energy's plan was a 30-in industrial size natural gas pipeline through Blue Ash, now it is a lower pressure and smaller diameter. A 30 inch pipeline exploded in Salem Township PA in May and San Bruno California in 2010. All proposed routes go through residential/highly populated areas next to homes, schools,
churches, synagogues, daycare centers, businesses and a hospital. This project presents a serious threat to public safety. We need to oppose ALL the routes. Write to the people who can influence the routing of the pipeline. It doesn’t have to be elaborate! Just state your opposition in your own words.
