New Rules to Address Fracking on Indian Lands

Here’s an article from the Navajo Times.  Their take on fracking is very different from ours.  But, toward the end of the article is the key to our actions: “The rule also contains specific language that requires the industry to certify that operations on Indian land comply with tribal laws.”  It is our fervent hope that the CORA Tribes will “see the light” and enact “tribal laws” that actually “protect the resources” of the 1836 Ceded Territory as the 2007 Inland Consent Decree mandates.
