“Let’s Get Ready” planning for EPA rally/hearing

On Monday, July 26, anyone interest in the study or the event on Aug 12 can attend a “Let’s Get Ready!” planning meeting at the Tompkins County Public Library, 7:00 – 8:15. Click here for more info about EPA hearing/rally in Binghamton.

State-wide planners are anticipating a large rally outside the Performing Arts Center from 12:00 – 1:00, and another one from 5:00 – 6:00, with tabling and events ongoing throughout the afternoon.  Speakers tentatively include: Josh Fox, Mark Ruffalo, Maurice Hinchey, Helen Slottje, Wes Gillingham,  people from Pennsylvania whose water has been contaminated by gas drilling operations, and many others.  We are hoping to have several thousand people in attendance that day.
