布萊克沃里爾河護(hù)水者(美國阿拉巴馬州) 的法務(wù)專員伊娃?迪拉德近期就阿拉巴馬州露天采礦委員會暫停對擴(kuò)建煤礦進(jìn)行甲烷監(jiān)測的決定發(fā)表了看法。阿拉巴馬州官員已告知聯(lián)邦政府,他們不會要求這些煤礦開展甲烷監(jiān)測 —— 而此類煤礦存在潛在爆炸風(fēng)險。在當(dāng)?shù)鼐用駭?shù)月的施壓下,聯(lián)邦官員向阿拉巴馬州發(fā)出了一份為期 10 天的通知,旨在迫使該州官員解決在產(chǎn)煤礦甲烷排放的危害問題。然而,州官員在同意給予煤礦企業(yè) 90 天時間提交更新計劃(詳細(xì)說明其將如何遵守相關(guān)要求)后,將期限延長了 6 個月。該期限已于 9 月 30 日到期,而阿拉巴馬州露天采礦委員會主任凱西?洛夫卻決定無限期暫停所有關(guān)于甲烷監(jiān)測計劃的要求。伊娃?迪拉德認(rèn)為這一決定十分魯莽,將煤礦企業(yè)的經(jīng)濟(jì)利益置于周邊社區(qū)的安全之上。

NEWS FROM THE MOVEMENT
Altamaha Riverkeeper (Georgia, U.S.) along with The Center for Biological Diversity, One Hundred Miles, Skidaway Audubon, and Coastal Plain Conservation Group, submitted a petition on September 30 to the State of Georgia, urging officials to require bycatch reduction devices on all blue crab pots in near-shore waters where terrapins are frequently found. When installed on crab pot entrance funnels, these small and inexpensive devices prevent most terrapins from entering the pot, while having little to no effect on crab haul.
Black Warrior Riverkeeper (Alabama, U.S.) Staff Attorney Eva Dillard recently discussed the Alabama Surface Mining Commission's decision to suspend methane monitoring for expanding coal mines. Alabama officials have informed the federal government that they will not require methane monitoring in these mines, which pose potential explosion risks. After months of pressure from local residents, federal officials issued Alabama a ten-day notice meant to force state officials to address the dangers of methane emissions from active coal mines. However, state officials extended the deadline by six months after agreeing to give coal mining companies 90 days to submit updated plans detailing how they intend to comply with the requirements. The deadline passed on September 30, and Alabama Surface Mining Commission Director Kathy Love decided to suspend any requirements for methane monitoring plans indefinitely. Eva Dillard believes this decision is reckless and prioritizes the financial interests of coal companies over the safety of surrounding communities.
La Paz Waterkeeper (Mexico) attended the Knowledge Sharing Week in Conservation (SICC), organized by Fondo Mexicano. During this event, the group exchanged ideas, shared experiences, and discussed challenges with allies dedicated to conserving and protecting the country’s natural resources. The SICC provided an opportunity to strengthen partnerships and discover new strategies to enhance their efforts.
Lower Susquehanna Riverkeeper (Pennsylvania, U.S.) and Waterkeepers Chesapeake (Maryland, U.S.) secured a settlement agreement on the Conowingo Dam's 50-year license, valued at $341 million, after over a decade of advocacy and legal actions, and 1 1/2 years of confidential mediation. Constellation agrees to fund and implement operational improvements and environmental projects to meet enforceable water quality standards by reducing and mitigating the impacts associated with the dam's discharge and operation on the Susquehanna River, the Chesapeake Bay, and its tributaries. The terms of the agreement include operational improvements, as well as upfront and ongoing annual payments for water quality and resiliency projects, trash and debris removal, wildlife passage, freshwater mussel restoration, dredging, and invasive species management. One thing they pushed for and achieved was a pathway to dredge the dam's reservoir, which is full and has lost its trapping capacity. In addition, Lower Susquehanna Riverkeeper and Waterkeepers Chesapeake have an ongoing role in implementing aspects of the certification and settlement agreement for the next 50 years, in partnership with the Maryland Department of the Environment.
Orange County Coastkeeper (California, U.S.) along with local dock owners, has successfully recruited 1,600 native Olympia oysters through its Shell String Project! Kaysha Kenny, Marine Restoration Director at Orange County Coastkeeper, explains that one adult oyster can filter up to 50 gallons of water every single day. Olympia oysters also provide habitat for fish and other marine life, help buffer coastlines against rising sea levels, and strengthen the resilience of coastal ecosystems. The Shell String Project aims to use collected, cured oyster shells to grow oysters on restored beds, which will improve water quality, stabilize shorelines, and support marine biodiversity for years to come.
San Antonio Bay Waterkeeper (Texas, U.S.) recently announced that Exxon Mobil will postpone its plans for a large new plastics production plant on the Gulf Coast of Texas, where it initially planned to build in Calhoun County. Tampa Bay Waterkeeper (Florida, U.S.) partnered with Suncoast Ladies Fly and Girls Inc. of Pinellas to teach young girls how to fly fish during the second annual Suncoast Ladies Fly Tournament. Tampa Bay Waterkeeper then received a donation of $1,585 from the organizers, which will be used to support their ongoing efforts.
