To: Undisclosed-Recipient@,

Important Protest Rallies http://www.bammm.org/LNG_Gas/Important_Protest_Rallies.htm

UPDATE
EACH FERC MEETING WILL HAVE PROTEST RALLIES ONE HOUR BEFORE
5:00 - 6:00 p.m.
 
>>>>>We Need You For One Hour!<<<<<
 

THESE RALLY EVENTS ARE ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT THINGS WE WILL DO

 WE NEED EVERYONE THERE!!! 

 

This is one of the best opportunities we will have to send a message loud and clear to the FERC (Federal Energy Regulatory Commission) and to our elected officials.

 

How Bad Do You Not Want This Facility & Pipeline?

 

I am bringing signs to each event or you can make your own signs 

We plan on standing peacefully with NO LNG / NO PIPELINE or handmade signs (no offensive signs) on the sidewalk areas at each event prior to the FERC Informational meetings which will start at 6:30 p.m.

 

We need massive amounts of people protesting before these meetings outside.

I cannot stress this enough!!! 

 

REMEMBER TO:

Be Safe/ Be Careful/ Be Courteous.

Yield to car & pedestrian traffic 

 

 We want positive media attention.   

 

   >>>>>>>Numbers Matter!!<<<<<<<

 

*******EVERYONE PLEASE BE THERE*******   

 

NOTE: These are informational meetings only........Today's Mail Tribune Article title was in Error.  Your only voice will be these protest rallies!

A NOTE from FERC: According to Paul Friedman of the FERC, the agencies will make presentations about how they do environmental reviews, and then they will have an open give & take / Q&A about how the public can have input into their process.  What they will not entertain are public comments (meaning statements about the project that are not linked to a question about FERC's process).  The time for public comments was back at the July scoping meeting (FERC will not be repeating that).  Of course, anyone can file written comments about the project on the record by sending a letter to the Secretary of the Commission.
