TAKE ACTION
French energy giant Total is applying for a third time to frack for gas behind an Arlington preschool.
The first action you can take to oppose new drilling at Mother’s Heart is to sign and share our petition. Let Mayor Ross and the Arlington city council members know the level of community opposition to a new drill site with 10 new gas wells close to three elementary schools and a preschool. Please fill out your complete Arlington address and feel free to customize your remarks by adding your own comments in the space provided.
Background
Total failed to secure permits to expand its AC360 site in 2020, and again in 2022, after Liveable mobilized massive community opposition.
​
Instead of respecting the community’s wishes, Total has come up with a plan to create a brand new drill site named Maverick with 10 gas wells right next to the AC360 site. The preschool will lie downwind from not one, but two drill sites if this dangerous plan is approved.
Three elementary schools - Thornton, Johns and Adams - are located within minutes of the planned site.
DISPLAY OUR YARD SIGN
Show your opposition to more gas wells where our children live, play, and go to school.
Email liveablearlington@gmail.com with Yard Sign in the subject line to get a yard sign. It is free for Arlington residents.
