declare the growing sinkhole in Assumption Parish, Louisiana in the vicinity of Bayou Corne a national disaster.

Created by M.T. on September 21, 2012

The pipeline that could be terribly damaged should the sinkhole and butane explode serves many states in the United States. Not only does it deliver gas through a network of pipelines that have a hub in Louisiana but there is a great amount of natural gas storage that needs federal protection.

All of the United States would be impacted for the worse if there were to be a disaster at Bayou Corne, Louisiana.
We ask for a declaration of national emergency to allow for the EPA and related government offices to better oversee the operations at the site.
