Can I ask a favor? Sign on to petition to STOP FRAC SAND MINING [View all]

http://www.change.org/petitions/pepin-county-board-wisconsin-deny-approval-of-petition-to-rezone-for-frac-sand-facilities-at-35-near-jj

This is through change.org and the proposed 3 story sand washing facility would be near my property.

We need to petition the county board to NOT grant a variance to allow this to happen. It would ruin the Great River Road in our part of Wisconsin, potential health hazards from silica dust in the air have not been fully studied in relationship to this operation, as well as heavy truck traffic ruining our roads.

All so someone else can wreck havoc and make a buck. Then leave us with the mess.

Thank you for looking and (hopefully) signing.
