I sure hope that our commissioners take the time to read this. I also hope it puts fear and trepidation into their hearts.

I read both of the press releases and found that to be an beneficial exercise. One event and two perspectives. Nestle’s press release sounds so familiar in its jargon of sustainability and responsibility. It cost the Michigan Citizens group upwards of $1,000,000 dollars to get Nestle to reduce their pumping rate from 400 gpm to 218 gpm.

I really hope that our County Commissioners are clear in understanding who we are dealing with.
