I urge you to deny the proposed gravel strip mine on the top of La Bajada Mesa, south of Santa Fe near I-25. This is one of the most important historical, cultural, and scenic landmarks in New Mexico. In addition, the County has unconscionably agreed to sell scarce, potable water for mining operations and for dust control. Please stop the destruction of this treasure. Go to www.savelabajada.org for further information.
Why is this important?
JUNE 11: FINAL HEARING TO DECIDE THE FATE OF LA BAJADA MESA
The Board of County Commissioners will hold a special hearing at 4:00 PM on Wednesday, June 11 at the Santa Fe Convention Center, 201 W. Marcy St., Santa Fe. PLEASE ATTEND THIS HEARING - IT IS OUR LAST CHANCE TO SPEAK OUT TO SAVE THE MESA.
Add your name to this petition urging the County to deny this application and share the petition with your friends.
--------------------------------------------
Help us stop a proposal to allow a gravel strip mine on top of La Bajada Mesa, south of Santa Fe along I-25. This stunning and historically important landmark will be desecrated by this strip mine, and use scarce, County-provided, potable water. Moreover, granting this proposal will establish a precedent for future expansion of this new mining zone to adjacent parts of the Mesa, further extending the destructive impact, All this for gravel!
