CITIZENS CAMPAIGN FOR THE ENVIRONMENT
ACTION ALERT!
ACTION ALERT!
Last Chance to tell Governor Spitzer to
SAY NO TO BROADWATER!!
SAY NO TO BROADWATER!!
Your Phone Call is Urgently Needed- Shell Oil is spending a large sum of money on radio and TV ads to influence the Governor – Please Call Him Now!!!!!
The Governor is still on the fence about Broadwater, and his decision is due any day now. Don’t let Big Oil have more influence than the public- Call Spitzer TODAY!
We’re in the final stretch of a long and difficult campaign. We have to keep the momentum moving. The Federal Government released the Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS) on Broadwater. As expected, FERC gave Broadwater the green light to move forward. Now, the future of Long Island Sound lies solely in the hands of Governor Spitzer. Governor Spitzer has until February 12 to make his decision on Broadwater and decide whether or not he supports Big Oil’s interests or the Public’s interests. His decision can come any day now, so tell himtoday to listen to the public and stop Broadwater!
Broadwater Energy, a joint venture between Shell Oil and TransCanada, is proposing to build an industrial Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) barge in the open waters of Long Island Sound, approximately 9 miles from Rocky Point.

Please send a quick email to newhaven@citizenscampaign.org or tofarmingdale@citizenscampaign.org with any response you receive from the Governor’s office. It helps us track progress on the issue.
The only way we can win on this issue is if Governor Spitzer hears from the public loud and clear.
