YOU are Invited to Come to Accident in Maryland with purpose!
From Engage Mountain Maryland, June 10, 2015
Have you heard of the Accident Dome? It is a name used for part of an aging underground natural gas storage facility in Accident, MD built in the 1960s. The site houses a compressor station and an underground storage field covering roughly 53 square miles which is owned and managed by Spectra Energy (Texas Eastern), a natural gas company.
The site is currently emitting into the air an estimated 10,000 tons of methane and other fugitive gases per year, some carcinogenic, which is of concern to many area residents.
Engage Mountain Maryland will be hosting a public information meeting about the state and federal regulations for facilities like the Accident Compressor Station and Storage Dome. Residents will have an opportunity to hear about this facility and associated natural gas infrastructure directly from the Maryland Department of the Environment, Spectra Energy, and Department of Natural Resources. Presenters will help explain the permitting process to educate the public about measures taken to protect our air and water quality, and health and safety of neighboring communities. Engage Mountain Maryland would like to extend an invitation to all citizens of Western Maryland and surrounding areas for this very informative evening:
Come to Accident with purpose on June 23rd at 7:00 PM
Location: Career Technology Training Center, 116 Industrial Drive, Accident, MD 21520
