With our partners at the Southern Environmental Law Center, the Alabama Rivers Alliance is standing up to the EPA, industry lobbyists, and D.C. politicians over a proposal to dismantle the Clean Water Act, one of this country’s bedrock environmental protections that has been in place for generations.

If their proposal becomes law, over 69,000 stream miles and millions of acres of wetlands will be at risk for unregulated pollution in Alabama alone. If we don’t keep our small streams and other upstream waterways clean, the water that most Americans drink and use in our daily lives will be at risk – including the drinking water for 84 percent of Alabamians.

The good news is this is not set in stone. The EPA is required, by law, to listen and respond to your feedback. It’s going to take every Southerner Š—” farmers, duck hunters, paddlers, beer drinkers, parents and people like you Š—” to stand up and stand together to fight back.

On March 26th, join us at Trim Tab Brewing. The deadline to comment and make your voice heard is quickly approaching, and now is your chance to stand up and #ProtectCleanWater.

You can learn more and submit your comment on the proposal now at www.protectsouthernwater.org.
