Clean Water Act Citizens' Suit for the Protection of Moose Creek
Spring TA Grant Award: $3500
Project Summary:

ACAL filed a Clean Water Act citizen’s suit against the Oneida-Herkimer Solid Waste Authority in June 2006. The suit aims to hold OHSWA accountable for allowing excessive sediment to enter Moose Creek during landfill construction, and to ensure that the stream will be protected now and in the future. This project will provide for continued legal services for ACAL’s case during the Discovery period of the lawsuit. ACAL will continue to inform the public and media of actions related to the suit through its weekly column ACAL News, website, press releases, letters to government officials, and continued correspondence with like-minded environmental organizations.
