🚨 Comment on EPA’s Coal Ash Rule Rollback due Friday June 12 by 10:59PM CST

Comment here: SC.ORG/COALASH or bit.ly/EPACARComment

The EPA has proposed a new rule that broadly guts critical coal ash safety standards that protect our community and water from W.A. Parish. The EPA is hosting a public hearing where community members will comment on how this rollback will impact us. Share why we can’t live with unregulated coal ash dumps, contaminated groundwater, and why we deserve robust groundwater monitoring to protect us.

Across the Greater Houston region, community members answered a simple but powerful question: What does clean air mean to you?

Their responses make one thing clear: clean air is not abstract. It is deeply personal. It affects whether children can safely play outside, whether workers can breathe through a long shift in the Texas heat, whether families can grow healthy food, and whether people living with asthma and allergies can make it through the day without fear.
