In addition to the local safety issues, I oppose the pipeline due to concerns that this new delivery system will increase investment in fracking in northern Ohio and the danger that poses to our aquifers.

Sycamore Township has been vocal and consistent in its opposition to all three proposed routes, all of which would affect our residents and businesses negatively.

Comment

The Sycamore Township Trustees were one of the first elected officials to announce that we were gooing to intervene in opposition to the Duke high pressure pipeline. As you probably know, regardless of the path that is chosen, Sycamore Township has the pipe going through their community. WE ARE OPPOSED TO ALL OF THE PATHS PRESENTED. WE WILL CONTINUE TO FIGHT IN OPPOSITION TO ALL PROPOSED PATHS.

I have been very active in the opposition to the pipeline both as a Councilmember in Amberley Village and as Chief of Staff to Councilmember PG Sittenfeld in the City of Cincinnati, who has been the primary convener of the interjurisdictional group of municipal leaders. Our team is also in the process of legislation advocating changes to state law. In Amberley, I am part of the group of Councilmembers who are extremely concerned about the future plans for the A-line and the impacts that would have on our community and will continue to be engaged to represent our constituents relating to that project regardless of what happens with the Central Corridor project.

Where do your elected officials/candidates stand?

Although Duke has filed for temporary suspension of the adjudicatory proceedings, NOPE fully expect them to resume some time in the future…possibly after November elections. We believe it is likely that Duke will continue their pipeline plans, either making adjustments to the Green Route (Duke’s alternate route) or returning to the Orange Route (Duke’s original preferred route).

Since March, 2017, elected officials from Amberley, Blue Ash, Cincinnati, Columbia Township, Deer Park, Evendale, Golf Manor, Hamilton County, Madeira, Pleasant Ridge, Reading and Sycamore Township oppose Duke’s pipeline and have been legally intervening on behalf of their constituents. Under the leadership of the City of Cincinnati (PG Sittenfeld) and Hamilton County (Todd Portune) the municipalities have banded together, along with NOPE, to create a powerful opposition coalition.

Elected officials in these municipalities have demonstrated a true dedication to protecting their communities from Duke’s unprecedented plans to build high pressure transmission lines through vibrant, densely populated communities. We have no reason to think that elected officials in these communities have anything less than complete commitment to opposing Duke’s pipeline through the inter-jurisdictional intervention coalition.

However, because of the upcoming general election, and in the event that priorities have changed, we sent candidates running for office (either as incumbents or non-incumbents) a brief questionnaire to understand where they stand on the pipeline, assuming no substantive changes have been made in Duke’s plans.

NOPE will be sharing responses in the upcoming weeks, as they become available.

Select your community below to determine where your municipal leaders and candidates stand on this issue.

Some municipalities were affected by Duke’s Central Corridor Pipeline and chose not to legally intervene. LEARN MORE

Jeff Cappell – “I strongly oppose this pipeline and have from Day 1. Meanwhile, my opponent voted against July 2016 legislation that directed the Blue Ash administration to begin fighting the pipeline. We deserve to have elected officials who stand with our neighborhoods against this dangerous pipeline.”
