\"Reflection<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

If you missed our documentary, \u201cAncestral Connections,\u201d<\/a> last Thursday, you can watch it on our website<\/a> or on YouTube<\/a>. Or, you can download the PBS app<\/a> on your Smart TV and watch on-demand, just like with Netflix or Amazon.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A big thanks to Megan Kamerick at KUNM<\/a> and Richard Eeds at KSFR<\/a> for having me on their shows to talk about the project and all that we learned along the way. And if you don\u2019t already, you should follow the Pueblo of Santa Ana\u2019s Department of Natural Resources on Facebook<\/a> so you can see more about their work (and watch a ton of wildlife videos).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On Friday, a BNSF train hauling gasoline and propane derailed near the Arizona-New Mexico border,<\/strong> spurring evacuations and closing traffic on a fifty-mile stretch of Interstate 40<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the Associated Press,<\/a> nearby homes were evacuated; the news agency also reported: \u201cThe train was transporting non-odorous propane and gasoline, and a half-dozen rail cars caught fire and burned for hours after the derailment, New Mexico State Police Lt. Phil Vargas said.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At first, there was confusion over whether the derailment occurred in New Mexico or Arizona. And although commercial television stations reported on the accident and the highway closures over the weekend, a lot of questions remain. This morning, KOB-TV reported<\/a> that train traffic is moving again, but it\u2019s unclear how long it will take BNSF to remove the derailed cars. The story also quotes an attorney who says there are about 40 property owners in the area. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019ve reached out to various agencies, including the New Mexico Department of Transportation, the National Transportation Safety Board (which is observing the investigation), and the Federal Railroad Administration (which is leading the investigation and whose officials have been on the scene since Friday). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019ll keep you posted on the investigation and anything else I learn. But, boy, don\u2019t you all wish that there were still thriving local newspapers across rural areas of New Mexico and the United States?<\/a> Nothing like being able to read on-the-ground reporting from people who know their own communities and can hold companies and officials accountable while also informing residents of any dangers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As an aside, the Our Land crew was filming at the Pueblo of Acoma a few weeks ago, and we were shocked to watch the train traffic that people in the lower villages endure throughout the day and night.<\/a> That I-40 railway corridor is so busy \u2014 and even busier now that there are seemingly endless waves of Amazon containers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, students at Thoreau High School, about 30 miles east of Gallup along I-40, recently sent letters to politicians and media outlets, opposing a plan to relocate uranium mining waste into Thoreau. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s a complicated issue, that bears delving into some history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the 1970s and \u201880s, Kerr-McGee<\/a> and the Quivira Mining Company extracted five million pounds of uranium ore<\/a> from three mines on the Navajo Nation, then left radioactive waste behind in the Red Water Pond Road Community. When the mines closed in 1983,<\/a> the buildings were demolished and removed, sediment from the contaminated ponds was excavated and dumped into mine shafts, and waste piles were covered with one foot of soil. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the New Mexico Environmental Law Center, which has represented the Red Water Pond Road Community Association for ten years, in 2007 the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency removed six inches of radioactive dirt from residents\u2019 yards, but residents \u201cstill deal with radioactive air emissions and water pollution.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2019, NMELC filed with the Human Rights Committee on behalf of the association, charging that the United States has violated the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights.<\/a> According to that report, \u201cThe United States\u2019 historic and current practice in remediating radioactive and toxic waste in minority communities generally, and indigenous communities specifically, reveals a pattern of disparate impacts on minority and indigenous communities resulting in abrogation of the rights to life, family, exercise of culture, and freedom from discrimination.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now, according to a 2023 story from Hannah Grover,<\/a> the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency is \u201cconsidering two alternatives for the waste: capping it and storing it at the site in the Red Water Pond Road Community or hauling it off for disposal at a nearby landfill in the Thoreau area.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

That landfill could include waste not only from the defunct Quivira Mine but also \u201cwaste left behind by hundreds of uranium operations across the Navajo Nation.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

KOAT-TV’s Andres Valle visited the Thoreau High School students<\/a> and sought comment from Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham, who noted the state hasn\u2019t received permit applications yet \u2014 and added \u201cthat they needed to send their concerns to the companies involved in the planning of the uranium waste site to participate in the conversations to stop it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thoreau, or Dl\u01eb\u0301\u02bc\u00ed Y\u00e1zh\u00ed, is a small town, and about 80 percent of its residents are Navajo; in their letter opposing the storage of mine waste in Thoreau, students wrote, \u201cWe view this proposal as reminiscent of colonialism.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe implore you to listen to us!\u201d students wrote. \u201cWe are tired of being overlooked and taken advantage of, and if our voices remain unheard, nothing will ever change.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Indeed, while the U.S. government has failed for more than fifty years to protect the residents of Red Water Pond Road Community, moving the waste into Thoreau hardly seems like a just plan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, the private corporations and shareholders who profited from the mines moved on to other projects and new ventures long ago. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because I\u2019ve been focused on <\/strong>\u201cAncestral Connections\u201d<\/a> and another project (which I can\u2019t wait to tell you about), I haven\u2019t had time to cover water issues in the state. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thankfully, John Fleck still takes to his blog regularly, including on Monday to note that spring runoff on the Rio Grande may have already peaked.  <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fleck has also posted twice about El Vado Dam on the Rio Chama, a tributary of the Rio Grande. El Vado Reservoir has been empty the past couple of years as the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation and its contractors have been rebuilding the 1930s-era dam. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now, as Fleck first noted on April 10,<\/a> Reclamation is \u201chalting work\u201d on the dam\u2019s repairs. This will have big \u2014 and long-term \u2014 implications, he writes, for farmers, the City of Albuquerque, the endangered silvery minnow, and the Middle Rio Grande\u2019s flows in summer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a follow-up post,<\/a> Fleck quoted Norm Gaume, who points out that because New Mexico currently owes a 122,000-acre-foot debt to Texas under the Rio Grande Compact, New Mexico can’t store water in El Vado Reservoir anyway. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As Fleck noted: \u201cNorm is making an incredibly important point here. El Vado is important in the long run. In the short run, thanks to the Rio Grande Compact\u2019s rules, we wouldn\u2019t be able to use it anyway this year to store spring runoff to stretch out irrigation through the summer. Unless and until we get our Compact debt under control, it doesn\u2019t matter whether, when, or how we fix El Vado.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
