> Dear Governor McAuliffe:<br>
> <br>
> 3 Virginia Outdoors Foundation conservation easements
allow <br>
> fracking in the most environmentally sensitive stretch of
the <br>
> Rappahannock River - right across from the Rappahannock
River <br>
> National Wildlife Refuge and right on the Captain John
Smith <br>
> Chesapeake National Historic Trail! <br>
> <br>
> These 3 V.O.F. conservation easements are the biggest
environmental <br>
> threat to the Rappahannock River Corridor - and taxpayers
foot the <br>
> bill!<br>
> 1) One easement allows 88 oil wells and 24 gas wells! <br>
> 2) One easement allows oil and gas drilling in a tidal
marsh!<br>
> 3) One 1977 easement was amended to allow oil/gas
extraction! <br>
> <br>
> V.O.F. and these landowners knew exactly what they were
doing; <br>
> their intent was clear. The simple fact is: no matter
what anybody <br>
> says, <br>
> current and future owners can frack in these 3 easements.
<br>
> <br>
> The simple common-sense solution is to amend the
easements to <br>
> prohibit fracking. Please ask Hill Wellford, Jimmy Wheat
and V.O.F. <br>
> to amend these 3 easements to prohibit fracking. They
will probably <br>
> say no but it is worth a try. <br>
> <br>
> Conservationists dont think industrial oil and gas
drilling is <br>
> conservation. Tea Partiers think it is a waste of taxes
to give <br>
> these rich landowners big tax credits.<br>
