Southeastern Oklahoma residents will have an opportunity to learn about the pending Sardis Lake lawsuit at an educational town hall forum, May 17, in Atoka.
Hosted by the Oklahoma Farm Bureau Legal Foundation, the Oklahoma Cattlemen’s Association and AFR, the meeting is intended to provide general background information on the lawsuit. The event is not a political forum but instead an education forum organized to explain the lawsuit’s legal process and how the filing will impact citizens’ water rights. Also, representatives from the Attorney General’s office and the Oklahoma Water Resources Board will be available to answer questions.
The May 17, meeting is scheduled for 6 p.m. at the Kiamichi Technology Center, Atoka Campus Seminar Center, 1301 W. Liberty Rd., Atoka. For more information on the Sardis Lake forum, please contact Oklahoma Farm Bureau Director of Public Policy Kinsey Money at (405) 523-2539.
