Write to Support Slurry Study

Please use this letter as an example for writing your own letter:

To the Senators and Delegates of the Joint Judiciary Subcommittee B:

I want to thank you for taking the time to listen and meet with us who care and are concerned about sludge injections and what it does to our state and people.

I am only one of many that live near a coal processing plant with a huge coal waste impoundment and worked out mines nearby.

I really hope you will support an independent study of slurry injections and the impact they have on our health and our water. Thank you again.

Sincerely,

Walter Young, Delbarton,
Mingo County
