[CRNMC] New Draft of 1/2 page flyer for review

[Andy Kreamer]

Hi all,

I read the suggestions people posted about the other 1/2 page flyer and
made this one.  I haven't read our ordinance yet (I'd love to see a copy)
but I changed some wording that I hope is alright.  I also added the
'Gaslands 2' link about fracking FAQs, I think it's a good site but by all
means change anything on here.  The attachment has better formatting than
what is here in the email.

My revision:

Community Rights - Water - Who Decides?
The Mendocino County Community Bill of Rights Ordinance will:



Affirm the right of County residents to local self-government, to clean
water, air and soil, and freedom from pollution caused by fracking.

-       Establish rights for natural communities and ecosystems.

-        Empower community members and the County government with legal
standing to enforce these rights.

 -       To secure these rights, fracking and related activities will be
prohibited within the County, with the exception of wells already
established and in operation at the time of adoption of this Ordinance.

-       Corporations engaged in fracking, or intending to do so in the
County, will not be able to nullify the rights and prohibitions secured by
this Ordinance.

Ali's version to compare:


Community Rights- Water- Who Decides?

The Mendocino County Community Bill of Rights Ordinance proposes to assert
the right of residents of the County to local self-government, to clean
water, air and soil, and freedom from chemical trespass. It would establish
rights for natural communities and ecosystems, and empower community
members and the County government with legal standing to enforce those
rights.

To secure these rights, fracking and related activities would be prohibited
within the County, with the exception of wells already established and in
operation at the time of adoption of this Ordinance. In addition,
corporations engaged in the unconventional extraction of hydrocarbons, or
intending to do so in the County, could not avail themselves of certain
legal rights and powers which would enable them to nullify the rights and
prohibitions secured by this Ordinance.
