Food and Water Watch has been working very hard this year to ensure that Nestle does not receive rights to Oregon’s water. Now it’s the public’s turn to tell the Oregon Water Resources Department not to let Nestle take Oregon’s water for their own bottling purposes.
You can go here to comment.
Here is what Food and Water Watch says about it:
The Oregon Water Resources Department is considering a water exchange proposal that would effectively enable Nestlé to access Oregon’s water and bottle it. This water exchange is a major and dangerous step forward in Nestlé’s plan to bottle Oregon’s water in the town of Cascade Locks in the Columbia River Gorge. If we stop this exchange, we could effectively shut down Nestlé’s plan’s to bottle Oregon’s water. If you take action by the 27th we will deliver your message in time for the deadline of September 30th.
