CLARKSBURG — Three districts of the Army Corps of Engineers have suspended water crossing permits for Dominion Energy's Atlantic Coast Pipeline project at the request of the company, according to#oilspill
"An estimated 250,000 liters (66,000 gallons) of crude spilled from the SeaRose FPSO, a floating production, storage and offloading vessel, in the White Rose oil and gas field off the coast of Newfoundland, Canada.
Husky Energy, the operator responsible, said the spill happened on Friday when the SeaRose FPSO "experienced a loss of pressure" in an oil flowline, according to the Canadian Press.
The incident occurred while Husky was preparing to restart production that was halted on Thursday due to bad weather."
Wind, solar and other forms of renewable energy don't spill, leak, explode, catch on fire, seep dangerous chemicals into water, land and air, or emit extremely damaging carbon and greenhouse gas emissions to the atmosphere resulting in the extreme results of climate change. And renewable energy is the best economic choice. Why are our governments still allowing fossil fuels to harm us and our planet?#nopipelines #banfracking
"The article from E&E News reporter Mike Soraghan underscores the federal Pipelines and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration's (PHMSA) weak authority over the fossil fuel industry for these disasters.
The government levied a mere $5.4 million in fines for the 13 pipeline explosion and fire cases in the last eight years, the analysis found."
"That's less than one day of profits for one major pipeline company, TransCanada."
"More than 300 people have died and 1,200 have been injured due to natural gas pipeline incidents in the last 20 years—and the nation's aging gas distribution network further increases these risks."
Over and over, natural gas proves us right - it is NOT safe. Even if a gas explosion doesn't hurt any living beings, it is pretty guaranteed to have caused damage, and it adds to greenhouse gases increasing extreme weather exacerbated by climate change. Until use and extraction of natural gas is shut down completely, the companies which have explosions and leaks from their work with natural gas should be made to justly pay for all problems caused and have their pipelines, drill sites and infrastructure shut down immediately for repeated explosions, leaks and fires.#sustainable

The ban could go into effect as soon as 2021.#banfracking We are being poisoned for profit.

The Cayuga Power Plant proposes to repower with fracked gas delivered by truck. We propose to stop them. Last Friday, 70 concerned citizens sat through a 2 hour special meeting of the Planning, Development, and Environmental Quality Committee of the Tompkins County Legislature on a weekday morning. After hearing 30 people speak, the committee voted 4:1 in favor of a strongly worded resolution asking the NY Department of Environmental Conservation to deny the Cayuga Power Plant's application to convert to burning fracked gas. A finalized version of the resolution will be considered by the full legislature on Tuesday, November 20th at 5:30.
