We're sorry, this alert is no longer available. If you would like to learn more about ways you can take action, please visit WildAlert.

The short explanation of this alert was:

A place of beauty and tranquility in southern New Mexico, Otero Mesa is home to the endangered Aplomado falcon and wildness unequaled in the Chihuahuan Desert. But, despite widespread public opposition, the mesa has been approved for oil and natural gas development, which will lead to the destruction of wildlife habitat and could contaminate vast reserves of groundwater.

Help us protect Otero Mesa, by sending a quick message to the BLM asking them to dismiss the permit to drill and to put in place future protections, such as a requirement for directional drilling.
