    Not even. Thankfully the DWA Board can't simply change the list on a whim, they must make recommendations to our state legislators, who vote on the changes during the next legislative session. The DWA Board simply took the first step in a multi-step process.

    Since many of us who responded also CC'ed our elected officials in our emails, I suspect that had an effect as well. Next year is a big election year for the state and our legislators really don't want to deal with anything too controversial.

    HB 4678 was introduced yesterday in the WV House. It's a start at getting rid of the DWA. Please get in touch with your state legiscritters and ask them to support it.
