Commissioner of Public Lands Pat Lyons;
WE, the undersigned citizens of Mora County, respectfully yet strongly urge you to refrain from any agreement to sell leases for State lands in Mora County and Colfax County to oil and gas development. We believe it would be a grave mistake to open up this pristine wilderness and highly prized hunting area to the risk of wildlife habitat destruction and pollution of the pure springs and streams and water aquifers that provide the source of water for the surrounding communities and much the county to the south. Please say
I have been spending my mornings walking near the springs that are threatened by these drilling plans. It is heartbreaking to imagine this water and the land I love being put at risk for industrial profit.
May 31, 2009
Seeing this kind of momentum feels like a weight lifting off my chest because I know exactly what these lands mean to our families. People are realizing that our water and our quiet mountain heritage are worth protecting from the drill bits.
