Fundraiser to Protect the Middle Fork
Join us at the Rose Bowl in Urbana on August 10, and help us protect the Middle Fork, a state and national treasure, from toxic coal ash pollution.
Tell IEPA – Don’t Approve Dynegy’s Wall
Tell the Illinois Governor, the IEPA, and the IDNR to require Dynegy to move its coal ash out of the floodplain of Illinois’ only National Scenic River!
It’s Time to Write Governor Pritzker
Governor Pritzker has said he will protect Illinois communities and our environment from coal ash pollution. Ask him to take a stand on the Middle Fork.
We’ve Got a Middle Fork Hearing!
Build a 1/3-mile long rock wall to protect toxic coal ash stored in the floodplain of the meandering Middle Fork? We say NO! Dynegy … move your ash!!
Who Can Stop Dynegy? The NPS!
The National Park Service can, and should stop Dynegy’s massive riverbank project. It is not consistent with requirements of the Wild and Scenic Rivers Act.
Dynegy Wants to Cap, Leave, and Run
Dynegy wants to permanently cap the coal ash, “stabilize” the abutting riverbank, wipe their hands, and pat themselves on the back for a job well done.
EJC Objects to Dynegy Permit
EJC objects to the issuance of a Section 404 permit for Dynegy’s harmful Middle Fork riverbank project, and asks for an Environmental Impact Statement.
Tell the IEPA: Hold a Hearing on Vistra’s Plan
Tell the IEPA to hold a public hearing on Vistra’s plan that would leave toxic coal ash forever in the floodplain of Illinois’ National Scenic River!
Tell the Corps: Hold a Hearing on Vistra’s Plan!
Tell the Corps to hold a hearing on Dynegy’s plan to armor riverbanks along its ash pits on the Middle Fork. Massive fill and excavation will severely impact the river, including water quality; aquatic life; and recreation.
Send a Comment to the Army Corps
We need you to send a comment to the Army Corps of Engineers telling them why Dynegy’s riverbank armoring project will unnecessarily harm the Middle Fork.
