Write or call our leaders in Albany to continue and renew focus on the health of Owasco Lake. Below is a great guide courtesy of our friends at Save Owasco Now! (SON).
ACTION PLAN – LETTER WRITING GUIDE
1.) Between now and November 1, 2018, write a advocacy letter to Governor Cuomo. Ask your friends and families to write letters, postcards, e-mails and/make phone calls to Governor Cuomo.
2.) Make your letter demonstrate your personal concern for Owasco Lake and the drinking water it provides. Keep it respectful yet assertive. Be sure you ask Governor Cuomo to protect Owasco Lake and our drinking water from cyanotoxins by:
a.) Placing Owasco Lake back onto the priority 303(d)List
b.) Phase I Environmental Site Assessment for the sub-watersheds of Owasco Lake
c.) Developing, adopting, and implementing a Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) for Owasco Lake with a clean-up plan within a two-years
