Submit a Public Comment: Say NO to Polluted Waterways

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) just announced a
reckless plan that will make it easier for corporations to
pollute and destroy millions of acres of wetlands and streams.

These waters are vital for clean drinking water,
flood prevention, and wildlife. We can’t let the Trump
administration’s EPA give away our waters to polluters.

Submit your comment in defense of clean water for all before

Dear NRDC Activist,

In case no one thought there were enough opportunities to pollute
our waterways, yesterday Trump’s EPA proposed a new rule that
would gut Clean Water Act protections for many U.S. wetlands and
streams, making it easier for corporations to pollute them.

WHAT’S HAPPENING

The EPA’s proposal is yet another
huge blow to clean water. Rolling back these lifesaving
protections will increase flood risks, harm wildlife habitat, and
degrade drinking water sources for millions of Americans.

The EPA is seeking public comments on
this destructive plan for the next 45 days. Add your voice now to
help show the Trump administration that millions of Americans
demand clean water protections. ( [link removed] )

WHY IT MATTERS

The Clean Water Act has cleaned up
our waterways over the last 50+ years by holding polluters
accountable for their toxic messes. With this new rule, the Trump
administration is putting polluters’ profits ahead of our basic
human right to clean water.

Our waterways were on the brink of death before the Clean Water
Act was enacted in 1972. For example:
* 240 million gallons of sewage waste
were dumped into the Potomac River every day
* An oil well blowout near Santa Barbara, California, spewed
100,000 barrels of oil into the Pacific Ocean
* An oil slick creeping across Ohio’s Cuyahoga River caught on
fire (multiple times!)

But polluting industries have tried to undermine
the Clean Water Act ever since it was passed — because they know
this law works.

Submit a public comment to the Trump
admininstration's EPA opposing their plan to hand over our
waterways to polluters. ( [link removed] )

WHAT’S AT STAKE

Clean drinking water. Wetlands
filter nitrogen (which can cause algae blooms) and toxic metals
from water as it flows toward drinking water sources.

Protections against flooding. Wetlands act as
natural flood barriers, soaking up massive amounts of water
during storm surges before they can damage communities.

Healthy ecosystems. Even though they only cover
about 5 percent of the continental United States, wetlands
support nearly half of all species listed as threatened or
endangered.

Submit a public comment to the Trump
admininstration's EPA opposing their plan to hand over our
waterways to polluters. ( [link removed] )

WHAT NRDC IS DOING

From passing bills expanding
protections to suing corporate polluters, NRDC has a long history
of ensuring clean water for all. We’ve fought multiple times in
court to protect all critical waters covered by the Clean Water
Act.

Right now, we’re building the best case possible
against this dangerous EPA plan by creating a public record
showing broad support for the Clean Water Act and wetlands
protection. It’s critical that advocates like you submit public
comments to show the Trump administration we won’t let them get
away with jeopardizing our clean water and to give NRDC legal
standing to challenge federal agencies if they disregard your
input.

Submit
your public comment in defense of clean water for all before the
deadline. ( [link removed] )

Jon Devine
