We must also remember this spill had an impact on the Southern Ute Indian Tribe, Ute Mountain Ute, and the Navajo Nation.

Let's identify what went wrong to make sure it does not happen again.

we need to pass Good Samaritan legislation to encourage counties, non-profits and companies to clean up abandoned mines throughout the West.

Affected communities and stakeholders deserve transparency and accountability in the events surrounding the spill.
