urgent call-in campaign! Enbridge, #LincolnMA Conservation Director, & #CambridgeMA water dept scheduled a "site visit" of the Lincoln forest. The site visit is the last step before construction. The site visit has been scheduled, but the date of it is not disclosed.
PLEASE call/email - demand the site visit be public, & that it be delayed so that there can be public participation:
Lincoln Conservation Dept:
781-259-2703, [email protected]
Cambridge Water Dept: 617-349-4770
Sample script:
Hello, I’m calling because I am concerned about the pipeline project being proposed for the town of Lincoln. The project is being proposed by “Algonquin” Gas, a subsidiary of Enbridge - one of the largest fossil fuel corporations in North America. Corporations like Enbridge cannot be trusted. I urge you to make the upcoming site visit with Enbridge open to the public, and to delay the site visit to create an opportunity for more public participation. Thank you for your time.

This story was broken by @universalhub. You can start at the link below and work backwards through the links.
The US District court filings are jaw dropping, especially the #CambridgeMA response to the Enbridge complaint, where they point out the “fatal flaw” of leaving #LincolnMA off the defendant/parties list even though it had & has legal standing.

Cambridge and Algonquin Gas Transmission today filed a plan that will let the pipeline company use part of a quarter-acre city parcel off Rte. 2 in Lincoln to haul in new equipment for a pipeline facility on the company's adjoining lot. Read more.
Which constituencies should be calling?
Thanks. I know you've been posting about this for a while now, but could you add to this thread a bulleted list of talking points (including context on the planned cutting and development) or else a link to posts in which you provide such talking points?
I don't want to accidentally misrepresent the situation or focus on the wrong things.

Can you clarify whether the affected land is in Cambridge or Lincoln? My impression from the documentation was Cambridge, but the sample script makes it sound like Lincoln.
Complicated O_O
