Assure that Duke Energy and its shareholders pay to clean up ALL the toxic coal ash dumps in North Carolina, and don't target low-income communities for this waste disposal.
Why is this important?
We, the undersigned, being people of conscience, call upon the McCrory Administration and the North Carolina General Assembly to recognize their moral obligation to assure that Duke Energy shareholders, not the people of North Carolina, pay to clean up all the toxic coal ash dumps.
Additionally, decisions must be made in consultation with the communities currently and potentially impacted by the toxic waste, with particular concern to protect communities of color and low-income communities that have historically been targeted for the storage of hazardous waste.
