Protect Yellowstone/Greater Rockies

The Bush administration is now considering a proposal to expand a phosphate mining operation into the pristine Sage Creek and Meade Peak roadless areas of Idaho's Caribou-Targhee National Forest. Phosphate mining has already released dangerous amounts of toxic selenium into the streams, groundwater and soils of this region, threatening local drinking water supplies and jeopardizing the survival of imperiled Yellowstone cutthroat trout, as well as elk, mule deer and other wildlife. If approved, this latest mining scheme would increase these pollution risks and set a dangerous precedent for other harmful development in the unspoiled wild forests of Greater Yellowstone.

» Tell the Bush administration to protect the outstanding natural values of the Sage Creek and Meade Peak roadless areas.
