WE ARE THE LAND - Uranium Mining In The Black Hills - PROMO TRAILER
PK Productions LLC and the Institute of Range and American Mustang release a new documentary film, "WE ARE THE LAND" from director / editor, Christopher Crosby.
The documentary made its film premiere at the "Black Hills - Protect Our Waters" Earth Day film festival on Wednesday, April 20th 2011 at the Elks Theatre in Rapid City, South Dakota.
ABOUT THE FILM:
Governments and the uranium industry say the mining and milling of uranium provides high-paying and much-needed jobs in some of the most remote areas of the country, with manageable environmental risks. But it's an industry that has long attracted its share of controversy.
This is a major concern for the Black Hills Wild Horse Sanctuary in western South Dakota, and other residents including environmental and conservation groups. The Sierra Club of South Dakota warns that water pollution will be a major concern if the mining company Powertech is given a permit to mine for uranium. The Sierra Club's Black Hills Group, says there's a high likelihood that aquifers will become polluted if an injection-well recovery system is used to mine the ore.
Powertech Inc USA has submitted its uranium mining application to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission and it can be viewed at the NRC website. The NRC has announced a time period for interested individuals to voice their concerns regarding the uranium mine's impacts to the environment. This proposed uranium mine will be the first time folks can be heard under the new GEIS.
"It's going to be my last great battle, but I'm going to win this one." says Hyde.
The Institute of Range and American Mustang owns 13,000 acres of private land dedicated to range preservation and a balanced ecosystem. I.R.A.M.'s finest gift is The Black Hills Wild Horse Sanctuary, whose purpose is to provide not only freedom for unadoptable and unwanted wild horses, but also a research area dedicated to solving wild horse herd management that will contribute to the well-being of wild horses everywhere.
