EVENT
Atlantic Coast Pipeline Cancellation Day!

Join us in celebrating five years of shutting down the Atlantic Coast Pipeline!
On July 5, 2020, community opposition forced Dominion Energy and Duke Energy to announce they were shutting down plans to build the 600-mile Atlantic Coast Pipeline. West Virginia, Virginia and West Virginia North Carolina residents united across state lines to put an end to this fracked-gas monstrosity, by holding marches, attending public meetings, monitoring construction and more.
The six-year fight against the Atlantic Coast Pipeline was very much an uphill battle. Dominion Energy and Duke Energy, two of the largest monopoly utilities in the country, claimed the project was inevitable. This hard-fought victory was due to the tireless work of community members, activists and organizations who stood shoulder to shoulder to protect their land, water, air and communities.
