Petition to Stop Glyphosate on the Moodus Reservoir


The petition to stop the chemical herbicide "Glyphosate" from being used as a method for weed control in the Moodus Reservoir is still open and available to sign.

The petition will be delivered to Deptartment of Energy & Environmental Protection (DEEP) officials and others, to show that this treatment and other forms of chemical treatments are unacceptable and unsafe for use in our lakes, streams or other waterways.

If you haven't signed yet and would like to, please do so and leave a comment to be sure that your voice is heard!
