TAKE ACTION
Urge Secretary Haaland to fulfill the Honoring Chaco Initiative
The Greater Chaco landscape continues to be ravaged by oil and gas development and nearby communities continue to experience the ongoing impacts of industrialized fracking. Interior Secretary Haaland took a major step to protect this region by issuing a 20-year administrative withdrawal that bans new oil and gas drilling on unleased federal lands within a 10-mile buffer around Chaco Culture National Historical Park, but there is still more to do. The Honoring Chaco Initiative (HCI), which seeks to identify solutions to address the need for landscape-level reforms through a new collaborative process, must resume and be completed to protect and restore the cultural integrity of all of Greater Chaco and its communities.
Take action and urge Secretary Haaland to follow through on her promise to Honor Greater Chaco. While a ban on fracking within 10 miles of Chaco Canyon is a step in the right direction, we need landscape-level safeguards that prioritize public health, economic and environmental justice, equity, and sustainability.
