August 16, 2018, Buckingham County Administration Building

Prayer Song Circle & Virginia Water Flags baptism 5-6 pm – before the DEQ Briefing on the Draft Air Permit for the proposed Atlantic Coast Pipeline Compressor Station at Union Hill 6-8 pm. Peter Francisco Auditorium, Buckingham County Administration Building, 13380 W. James Anderson Highway, Buckingham, VA. At the briefing, can ask questions, but not comment.

Bring a small amount of water from a waterway you love.

We can stop the proposed 54,000 + horse power ACP Compressor Station that would endanger and diminish the health and land values of all residents of Buckingham County and destroy the lives of the historic African American community of Union Hill.

The next challenge is to deny the air permit for the compressor station. Without the compressor station, the ACP, a robbery of and threat to all Virginians, cannot be built.

This compressor station, a giant one, even by industry standards would bring loud constant noise and release toxic poisons into Buckingham’s air and water. The health of children is particularly vulnerable to the methane, formaldehyde, arsenic, benzene, xylene and other compounds the compressor will regularly release. The compressor station would create a fire and explosion hazard completely beyond the capacity of distant volunteer firefighters. The station has few staff on site and would be built on a former slave plantation atop the unmarked slave graves of Union Hill ancestors.

LIFT UP YOUR VOICE: The public comment period for the compressor station draft air permit is August 8, 2018 until September 11, 2018.

If you cannot make the the briefing, the PUBLIC HEARING is even more important: Tuesday, September 11, 4-9:30 pm,Buckingham County Middle School, 1184 High School Road. Hearing begins at 5, but join us for prayer, song and food outside at 4.
