Thomas County citizen Alton Burns, who already
wrote to FERC,
is
on the agenda
to speak against the Sabal Trail fracked methane pipeline
at the
Thomas County Commission tomorrow morning, 9AM Monday 9 December 2014 in Thomasville.
Remember,
Sabal Trail’s route Alternative 3
would run through Thomasville,
and FERC could pick any route, no matter which one Sabal Trail prefers.
Plus, with Lowndes County about to
vote on
the resolution wanting Sabal Trail out of Lowndes County
it already sent to FERC
and with
Valdosta scheduled to vote Thursday night on a resolution of support for Lowndes County’s opposition,
the only proposed Sabal Trail route through Georgia
that doesn’t go through Lowndes County
is that
Alternative 3 through Thomasville.
Thomas County could do what Dougherty County and Albany already did,
and Lowndes County and Valdosta are about to do:
pass an ordinance saying no pipeline in this county, and no pipeline
in the state of Georgia.
Also note
the agenda
lists names of potential appointees
to
seven different boards.
Other county commissions could list such names on their agendas.

He concluded, “There’s nothing beneficial to the state of Georgia in this pipeline.”
Some Commissioners had never heard of Sabal Trail:
now they have, from local resident Alton Paul Burns,
at their
9 December 2014 Thomas County Commission Regular Session,
and they know it could come right through Thomasville.
