TAKE MORE URGENT ACTION TODAY!!!

Governor Cuomo refuses to require public participation for the DOH Review of the "health impact analysis" conducted by DEC. As a result, DEC remains on-track to make a final decision whether to permit Marcellus Shale gas fracking in New York by 2/27/13.

It is imperative that a DOH Review conducted completely in secret without any public input must not be used to support adoption of a Final SGEIS or DEC's shale gas Revised Rulemaking proposal. The DOH Review must be put on-hold until all its shortcomings have been resolved.

1. Assemblywoman Barbara Lifton is circulating a colleague sign-on letter to Assembly and State Senate representatives which makes that critical request.

CALL AND ASK YOUR ASSEMBLY AND STATE SENATE REPRESENTATIVES TO SIGN MS. LIFTON'S LETTER. WE NEED EVERY SIGNATORY THAT WE CAN GET!!!
