Dear Editor,
On Feb. 18 Nestle is planning to propose their revised project description at a “community meeting.” It’s unclear why they have chosen to do this when the MCSD has said for the third meeting in a row that they are not going to negotiate at this time.
As more and more news comes out about the most serious drought California has ever faced, how can Nestle be proposing to build a bottling plant at the headwaters of the state?
Their decision to hold a meeting has raised a lot of questions.
Is Nestle so desperate to get a foot in door that they are ignoring the message from the community that this process will take more time?
The water science is underway, but it took five years of concerted effort from the community to get those studies started.
The project description should be base on the science, and right now, not even phase 1 is completed. How could Nestle be so bold as to propose a project without that and other critical information?
McCloud residents need to be cautious about what they hear Nestle saying.
A new project description based on real data and information would allow McCloud to make a sound choice. The community has clearly asked for it. One word sums up Nestle’s actions — “premature.”
I hope all concerned members of our community will attend the meeting on Feb. 18 and rearticulate the concerns that came out of the last meeting. We now have additional information concerning the drought in our state.
This is the wrong time for Nestle to be trying to gain ownership of our water.
Sincerely,
Tina Ramus
