The Lower Perkiomen Valley Regional Sewer Authority (LPVRSA) plans to double its capacity by constructing a new sewer line along the Perkiomen Creek.

There is no data that proves the need to increase sewer capacity. The middle section alone will cost over nine million dollars. Where is the money coming from? All ratepayers are expected to pay part of this in rate increases, and future developers are expected to pay as well. Don't feed sprawl: Help protect the Perkiomen Creek from sewer development.

BPA doesn't belong in products for kids.
Take Action: Ask your State Representative to vote for HB 2478.

Many familiar products, such as baby bottles, water bottles, and other food containers, use a toxic chemical called BPA (bisphenol-A) in the plastic. Unfortunately, BPA can leach out of plastic containers and is now found in over 93% of all Americans according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control.

Our forests are at risk from natural gas drilling, and only you can save them.

One-third of state forest lands, or about 700,000 acres, are already open to natural gas exploration and extraction. But gas drillers are pushing for more land, and Governor Rendell has proposed leasing additional state lands to help close the budget gap.

Our precious state parks and forests cannot be used as an ATM. Some of our major industries - outdoor tourism, recreation and sustainable timbering - rely on well-managed, protected lands in order to thrive. Gas drilling operations would mean building roads and pipelines through pristine lands, and would pose an immense risk to quality waterways.

In the past two years, the natural gas industry has recklessly endangered the safety of Pennsylvania's waterways. Just this September, thousands of gallons of dangerous fluids, like diesel fuel and hydrochloric acid, have been spilled in multiple incidents in our state. Sadly, that's just the beginning when it comes to kind of accidents that have endangered our environment and our health.

Take action now: Ask your Representative to support critical legislation that would protect Pennsylvania's water from drillers.
