Nestle implications in Chaffee County

I am writing to let you know about two events: Monday - The showing of FLOW: How did a Handful of Corporations Steal Our Water, and Tuesday - the NESTLE public hearing

FLOW will be shown Monday night, March 2nd at 6pm in Bongo Billy's basement.

"Water is the sleeping giant of the 21st century and we all need to wake up about it. FLOW opens our eyes about the greatest threat of our time - the global water crisis. It is a compelling and passionate film. Its engaging narrative will grip the viewer." - Robert Redford

We are asking that all who are able ,attend the MEETING about the proposed NESTLE Water Project to extract 200-acre feet annually from 2 springs at Ruby Mountain for their bottled water biz. The water will be shipped via 25 trucks/day to their Denver Bottling Plant.

The meeting is with the Chaffee County Planning Commission at the Steamplant, 1pm, Tuesday, March 3rd.

For more information about the project check out www.nestlewatersco.com, and click on Chaffee County Project, also there are two articles on the Salida Citizen website.

Thanks so much,

Michele Riggio
