Why voting for pro Environment Candidates for Sussex County Dist 24 Assembly and Senate Should be an issue for you

None of our Republican Dist 24th State Representatives have taken on DEP toxic cleanups of Sussex County sites or banning gas fracking on State designated preserved land as a platform issue. In Hopatcong, Byram and Andover a private investment company has purchased large parcels of undeveloped land for land speculation.  Do they know something about the possible future use of this land that would increase the buyout price for it?
Maybe you should take heed in this information that how you vote for state assembly and state senator candidates for their record on environment issues can impact the landscape of Sussex County in the not too distant future.
 NEWTON — Environmental activists from around the region convened in Newton on Tuesday to warn concerned residents about the problems and perils that may result should the Tennessee Gas Pipeline company complete the “Northeast Upgrade,” a pipeline project intended to transport millions of cubic feet of gas to major U.S. ports. The pipeline system is dedicated to shipping natural gas from the gas fields in northeast Pennsylvania through New Jersey to terminals in Pennsylvania, New York, Maryland, and on the Gulf Coast, much of it for export rather than for domestic energy consumption. .....
 What water is returned to the surface after the fracking contains chemicals, some of which are radioactive. Some New Jersey companies, including DuPont, have signed contracts to treat the waste water from the Pennsylvania fracking operations. The New Jersey legislature passed a bill to ban the transport of the contaminated water through the state, but it was blocked by Governor Christie’s veto. Tennessee Gas Pipeline has not yet been given all the permits it needs to proceed. The organizers of Tuesday night’s meeting hope that the work they have done so far will delay the beginning of construction of the Northeast Upgrade and that a re-hearing by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, as requested by Senator Robert Menendez, may reverse the decision to grant the permits that have been already issued. - See more at: http://spartaindependent.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20121017/NEWS01/121019923/Pipeline-concerns-...
