Did a teacher in your life instill an appreciation for our natural resources? Well @USGS data shows @MammothMountain drinking water is at risk of contamination from #Ormat operations. Get Involved: mcwd.dst.ca.us/ #WhyRiskIt #ThankATeacher #TeacherAppreciationWeek

We're calling on Ormat, regulators & our elected leaders: take action to prevent the potentially devastating impacts of Ormat's geothermal pumping before it's too late. Our community's drinking water is at stake. #WhyRiskIt read more: mcwd.dst.ca.us/ormat.html
