保護行動動態
阿查法拉亞盆地護水者(美國路易斯安那州)與路易斯安那小龍蝦生產者協會(西區)聯合對阿查法拉亞盆地項目提起訴訟,指控該項目多年來蓄意管理不善,導致盆地防洪能力受損,并違反了路易斯安那州憲法規定的“為民眾健康與福祉,保護本州自然資源”的法定義務。訴訟明確要求阻止該項目旗下的東格蘭德湖工程推進,并請求法院強制要求與海岸保護與修復局《阿查法拉亞總體規劃》相關的特定會議向公眾開放。
海灣城市護水者(美國得克薩斯州)呼吁地方及州政府領導人在聯邦政策放寬的背景下,將水資源保護列為優先事項。自“薩基特訴美國環保署(EPA)”案裁決后,美國陸軍工兵團與EPA已削弱對濕地的保護力度,使脆弱社區面臨更大風險。得克薩斯州的法律保護水平在全美排名靠后,海灣城市護水者高級法律總監兼護水者克里斯汀·施萊默強調,州政府與地方需加強協作,以應對這一緊迫問題。
布蘭塔斯河護水者(印度尼西亞)將舉辦線上研討會,聚焦女性垃圾處理工面臨的不成比例的健康風險——她們長期暴露于塑料中的內分泌干擾物(EDCs)及其他有毒物質,這些物質可能影響激素平衡、生殖健康及長期福祉。本次研討會主題為“隱形暴露:內分泌干擾物與有毒化學物質如何影響女性垃圾處理工”,將于明日(11月25日)13:00–14:30(格林威治標準時間+7)舉行。布蘭塔斯河護水者達魯·塞蒂約里尼博士將與來自印度尼西亞、韓國及泰國的專家共同探討女性垃圾處理工面臨的健康風險,分享最新研究成果,剖析職業健康保護領域的挑戰,并凸顯公民社會在倡導行動中的作用。其他發言嘉賓包括:韓國工作環境健康研究所(WIOEH)的金元博士、艾爾朗加大學的萊斯塔里·蘇達揚蒂博士以及泰國地球協會的提迪空·布通邁。目前仍可報名參與!
哥倫比亞河護水者(美國俄勒岡州)在哥倫比亞河流域的三文魚保護與水質改善方面取得法律勝利,成功起訴昆西市。該和解協議終結了這起基于《清潔水法》的聯邦訴訟,確保工業廢水處理設施嚴格遵守許可要求。根據協議,昆西市將向雅卡馬部落聯盟支付40萬美元,用于支持環境項目,這筆資金將專項用于改善亞基馬河流域的水質與水生棲息地。
大特拉弗斯灣護水者(美國密歇根州)也贏得重大法律勝利,成功制止伯內特食品公司水果加工廠的持續污染行為。11月12日,貝克林法官針對《清潔水法》與《密歇根州環境保護法》下的所有訴訟請求作出簡易判決,這一裁決具有先例意義。作為“薩基特訴EPA”案重新定義“美國水域(WOTUS)”概念后的首批相關裁決之一,該判決確認地下水、濕地、小溪與湖泊彼此相連,保護其中任一環節都意味著保護整個生態系統。這一勝利的取得,離不開大特拉弗斯灣護水者、聯合原告組織及支持該行動的當地社區多年來的精心數據收集、證據記錄與不懈堅持。
奧蘭治縣海岸護水者(美國加利福尼亞州)強烈譴責美國內政部最新發布的《五年近海鉆井計劃》。該計劃提議自1984年以來首次在西海岸開展油氣租賃銷售,其中包括2027年至2030年間在加利福尼亞州附近海域進行的6次租賃。奧蘭治縣海岸護水者創始人兼總裁加里·布朗表示:“新的鉆井活動將導致更多毀滅性的石油泄漏事件”,并以雷富希奧漏油事件和亨廷頓海灘漏油事件等災難為例發出警示。他指出,該提議與環境現實及兩黨民眾的廣泛反對相悖。各界領袖批評該計劃忽視了老化的基礎設施、霍利鉆井平臺慘敗等遺留問題,且未能滿足沿海社區對透明度的訴求,也未為保護沿海生態系統、社區福祉及經濟發展提供更強有力的保障。
帕蘇爾河護水者與孟加拉國護水者聯盟(孟加拉國)聯合舉辦“氣候行動日”紀念活動。參與者聚集在蒙拉市卡奈亞加爾的帕蘇爾河畔,組成人鏈并舉行靜坐抗議。他們展示了一系列標語,提出與氣候相關的訴求,并敦促全球領導人立即采取行動保護沿海居民,為受氣候變化影響的社區爭取公正。
波托馬克河護水者聯盟總裁貝齊·尼古拉斯(美國哥倫比亞特區、馬里蘭州、弗吉尼亞州)近期在《里士滿時報快訊》發表專欄文章,呼吁弗吉尼亞州領導人在農田使用含全氟和多氟烷基物質(PFAS)的生物固體問題上,優先保障透明度與問責制。她強調,迫切需要出臺“農民知情權”政策,強制要求對相關生物固體進行檢測、公開信息并接受公眾監督,確保農民及周邊居民在不可逆的損害發生前,充分了解其對水資源、土壤及公眾健康的潛在影響。

NEWS FROM THE MOVEMENT
Atchafalaya Basinkeeper (Louisiana, U.S.) and Louisiana Crawfish Producers Association – West filed a lawsuit against the Atchafalaya Basin Program, alleging years of willful mismanagement of the Basin’s flood capacity and violations of the Louisiana’s constitutional obligation to protect the natural resources of the state for the health and welfare of the people. The lawsuit specifically seeks to prevent the Program’s East Grand Lake project from moving forward, as well as requesting the court to require certain meetings related to the Coastal Protection and Restoration Authority’s Atchafalaya Master Plan be opened to the public.
Bayou City Waterkeeper (Texas, U.S.) has called on local and state leaders to prioritize water protection amidst federal rollbacks. Following the Sackett v. EPA ruling, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and U.S. EPA have reduced protections for wetlands, putting vulnerable communities at greater risk. Texas ranks low in legal protections, and Kristen Schlemmer, Senior Legal Director and Waterkeeper of Bayou City Waterkeeper, emphasizes the need for state and local collaboration to address this urgent issue.
Brantas River Waterkeeper (Indonesia) is hosting a virtual webinar highlighting how women waste workers are disproportionately exposed to endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) and other toxic substances from plastics, which can affect hormonal balance, reproductive health, and long-term wellbeing. Invisible Exposures: How EDCs and Toxic Chemicals Impact Women Waste Workers will take place tomorrow, 25 November from 13:00–14:30 (GMT+7). Brantas River Waterkeeper Dr. Daru Setyorini will join other experts from Indonesia, South Korea, and Thailand to discuss the health risks faced by women waste workers, share latest research findings, explore challenges in occupational health protection, and highlight the role of civil society in advocacy. Other speakers include: Won Kim, PhD (WIOEH); Dr. Lestari Sudaryanti (Airlangga University), and Thitikorn Boontongmai (EARTH Thailand). There’s still time to register!
Columbia Riverkeeper (Oregon, U.S.) secured a legal victory against the City of Quincy for salmon and water quality in the Columbia River Basin. The settlement resolves a federal Clean Water Act lawsuit, ensuring that industrial wastewater treatment facilities comply with their permits. As part of the agreement, the city will make a $400,000 payment for a Supplemental Environmental Project to the Confederated Tribes and Bands of the Yakama Nation. This funding will support projects that improve water quality and aquatic habitat in the Yakima River Basin.
Grand Traverse Bay Waterkeeper (Michigan, U.S.) also secured a major legal victory against ongoing pollution from Burnette Foods' fruit processing facility. On November 12, Judge Beckering granted their motion for summary judgment on all claims under the Clean Water Act and the Michigan Environmental Protection Act, marking a precedent-setting decision. This ruling, one of the first since Sackett v. EPA redefined WOTUS, confirms that groundwater, wetlands, creeks, and lakes are all interconnected, and protecting one means protecting them all. This victory comes after years of diligent data collection, documentation, and persistence by Grand Traverse Bay Waterkeeper, the partner plaintiff organizations, and the supportive local community.
Orange County Coastkeeper (California, U.S.) sharply condemned the U.S. Department of the Interior’s new Five-Year Offshore Drilling Plan, which proposes the first oil and gas lease sales off the West Coast since 1984, including six off California between 2027 and 2030. “New drilling means more devastating oil spills,” said Garry Brown, Founder and President of Orange County Coastkeeper, citing disasters like the Refugio spill and the Huntington Beach spill as warnings. He noted that the proposal runs counter to environmental reality and broad bipartisan public opposition. Leaders argue that the plan ignores aging infrastructure, ongoing liabilities such as the Platform Holly fiasco, and the need for transparency and stronger protections for coastal communities, ecosystems, and economies.
Pashur River Waterkeeper, along with Waterkeepers Bangladesh (Bangladesh), organized an event to commemorate Climate Action Day. Participants gathered on the banks of the Pashur River at Kanaiagar in Mongla, forming a human chain and holding a sit-in. They displayed banners highlighting climate-related demands and urging global leaders to take immediate action to protect coastal populations and ensure justice for communities affected by climate change.
Potomac Riverkeeper Network President Betsy Nicholas (District of Columbia, Maryland, Virginia, U.S.) recently published an op-ed in The Richmond Times-Dispatch calling on Virginia state leaders to prioritize transparency and accountability in the use of PFAS-contaminated biosolids on farmland. She highlights the urgent need for Farmers’ Right to Know policies that mandate testing, disclosure, and public accountability, ensuring farmers and neighbors are informed about impacts to water, soil, and public health before irreversible harm occurs.
