Citizens for a Healthy Community
PO Box 291 Hotchkiss, Colorado 81419 |
Citizens for a Healthy Community is a non-profit 501 (c) (3) organization dedicated to protecting the Delta County region from irresponsible gas drilling. Delta County and the surrounding lands are a special place -special because this place is our home. It’s where we choose to create our future, raise our families, build our businesses and connect with the land. Like many who live here, visitors come to this corner of Colorado’s Western Slope to tread into the hills, take in the rural lifestyle, pick a peach, hunt or cast a line in our clear streams and rivers. But our surrounding lands, the watersheds that supply our irrigation and drinking water, our communities and our health are threatened by natural gas drilling. |

Clean Air Council
(215) 567-4004 135 S. 19th Street, Suite 300 Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19103 |
Clean Air Council is a member- supported, non-profit environmental organization dedicated to protecting everyone's right to breathe clean air. The Council works through public education, community advocacy, and government oversight to ensure enforcement of environmental laws. The Council was founded in 1967 by a group of forward-looking community leaders, policy makers, and progressive business leaders. Headquartered in Philadelphia, the Council made a name for itself by the mid-1970s as the result of two major achievements: establishing and distributing a daily regional air quality index report (still used to this day); and forcing Pennsylvania to implement its vehicle emissions testing program. The Council has now grown to include 8,000 members and expanded its programmatic focus to include children’s environmental health, energy, climate change, waste and recycling, and transportation. The Council has also established an indoor air quality resource center for the public and holds the Philadelphia area’s largest Earth Day event, the Annual 5k Run for Clean Air. |

Texas Oil & Gas Accountability Project

Comprised of local citizen activists, and staff and board members of EARTHWORKS, our goal is to address needed oil and gas policy reforms in Texas on the state and local level. Texas OGAP operates through a steering committee of people directly affected by oil and gas development, attorneys, and elected officials. We anticipate broadening our efforts to include specific committees around water and air impacts, landowner rights, and other issues central to responsible natural gas extraction and transport. |
