Your voice can and should be heard. Not only do elected officials need to hear from you, they often want to hear from you in order to have "political cover" in order to make brave decisions. It is very possible we can slowly reverse the ability of WCS to dump this toxic garbage at the Andrew's County site. It is important that you contact your member of congress, Gov. Rick Perry, Texas Speaker of House Joe Straus, or U.S. Senator Kay Bailey Hutchinson and ask them to please ask the Secretary of Energy Steven Chu to postpone any license for the facility until a more comprehensive study can be conducted of the Andrews County site. It's also important to talk to your friends and neighbors. There were folks in Andrews County that had no idea that the WCS dump could impact the Ogallala Aquifer, their main source of drinking water. When people write to their newspapers, get on the internet, or call in to a local radio station people become informed. These are simple ways to get involved and make a difference!
