Greetings All,

Anne Rabe has worked at New York Public Interest Group and her knowledge and dedication is extensive.  We need a moratorium to stop the dumping of tritiated water into the Hudson and Anne may have found a way.

Her work will go to many different agencies and officials and it is quite dense.  The summary below is an easier read.

She has asked for our help in showing support for this complicated piece of work. It is possible that her work could have national implications on how States treat waste water.

You can sign on twice, once as an individual and once as an organization. 

Please stand in solidarity with this attempt to protect our Hudson! Sign on and amplify this message on your own lists and social media.
