Tell the Bureau of Land Management: Oppose construction of Ambler Road

Dear Secretary of the Interior David Bernhardt,

I strongly urge you to reject plans for the construction of Amber Road, a 211-mile private road that threatens the North Alaskan ecosystem.

If built, Ambler Road would cross the Gates of the Arctic National Park and Preserve, 2,900 streams and 11 major rivers. This route would interrupt the migration of the Western Arctic Caribou herd and threaten salmon and whitefish populations. After construction is complete and mining begins, acid mine drainage may contaminate waterways, poisoning fish and fauna for hundreds of years.

The natural riches of the Alaskan wilderness landscape should not be sacrificed for mining firms' profits. Please stand against Ambler Road.

Sincerely,
