The “Stand with Union Hill Concert of Prayer” will be an all night interfaith prayer vigil with music and story on the eve of the Dec. 10 Air Board Meeting & Vote on Union Hill Compressor Station *** when the Virginia Air Pollution Control Board may approve or deny the air permit for the proposed Atlantic Coast Pipeline compressor station in Union Hill, Buckingham County.

All night vigil begins Sunday December 9 at 6 pm, through Monday morning December 10, 9:30 am. Location to be announced. Stay tuned.

Faith communities, water and air protectors, artists and environmental organizations will come together for the protection of Union Hill and all our children’s futures to share prayer, story and song.

Message us here if you would like to participate. Feel free to come for any part of the vigil.

After the November 8 Public Hearing, Governor Northam fired two of the Air Board members, notably those who expressed doubt and concern about need and the Environmental Justice issue of the proposed compressor station site.

Without reinstatement of these members or an opportunity for the public to address the newly constituted board, no vote taken can be legitimate.

Can we get a witness?    Water is Life Facebook event – are you going?

Air Pollution Control Board hearing on the draft air permit for the proposed Atlantic Coast Pipeline compressor station in Union Hill.  At their November 9, 2018, meeting, the Board voted unanimously to postpone a vote on the permit until their next meeting on December 10, 2018.

In an unprecedented action less than one week later, on Thursday, Nov. 15, Governor Ralph Northam removed and replaced the two members of the Air Board most demanding of accurate information and environmental justice.  Any action by a uninformed and late packed board whose members have not all heard public opinion on the ACP compressor station is not legitimate.  Mark your calendars to attend the meeting and register your objections to the process.
