💦Join Waterspirit for Watershed Wednesdays 💦
Waterspirit has been involved with the Victory Over Infrackstructure Clean Energy InStead (VOICES) coalition for a decade working to safeguard waterways, including the Delaware River Basin, from unconventional hydraulic fracturing and related wastewater. The Delaware River Frack Ban coalition is spearheading the effort to orchestrate comments into the Delaware River Basin Commission, focusing on a key theme each week. We hope you’ll join us in commenting every Wednesday until the comment period ends on February 28th, 2022.
