Tell FERC: no more excuses, deny the MVP extension request.

The Mountain Valley Pipeline is a 303-mile-long fracked gas pipeline that is steamrolling its way through Virginia and West Virginia. The pipeline threatens fresh water, land and life in Appalachia.

Earlier this year, a federal court ruled that it is withdrawing two key federal permits for the dangerous 300-mile MVP because agencies did not do a proper review of the project. This means the pipeline will need to reapply for these permits from the Biden administration. The court rulings are the latest evidence of a series of flawed environmental and social justice reviews done by federal agencies under previous administrations. In one of its decisions, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit found that the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service had violated the Endangered Species Act.

MVP has just applied to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission for FOUR more years to complete the project, so it’s critical that you act now.

It is clear that – despite what Senator Manchin and the fossil fuel industry claims – MVP is not inevitable, and President Biden has the power to stop it.

Leaders across the region are taking action to prevent the MVP’s destruction and emissions. If approved the MVP could be responsible for the disastrous greenhouse gas equivalent of 23 new coal-fired plants’ emissions per year. Our communities, waters, mountains and futures will not be sacrificed for this unnecessary climate and ecological disaster.
