August 2010 FACT SHEET

Join the Cause, this is the BP of the NW and learn more here and on facebook

This is the epicenter of the nation's largest Superfund site incorporating 1500 square miles.

EPA allows for toxic dumps in wetlands to be closed in other states as not acceptable!

Yet Region X EPA builds toxic dump sites in wetlands because they are "convenient".

The toxic dump of concern in this post is located at Idaho's oldest building, which is on Sacred Lands of the Salish people and a National Historic site.

Volunteers needed, donations needed...

AN URGENT ENVIRONMENTAL ASSAULT NEEDING YOUR SUPPORT

While the media focuses on the tragic losses in the Gulf of Mexico, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Florida and related locations a major environmental issue is consistently ignored.  

HELP NEEDED AT BUNKER HILL SUPERFUND SITE

Please support ending the terrible conditions of the vulnerable people of the Silver Valley - including flora and fauna - and the efforts of SV Waterkeeper to bring an end to the toxic dump site where overflow runs into a wetland and the Coeur' d'Alene River and Lake, as well as downstream into the Spokane River, onward to the Pacific Ocean. 

The East Mission Flats repository is situated within yards of the oldest building in Idaho and is the National Historic site known as Cataldo Mission.

This is the epicenter of the nation's largest Superfund site, Bunker Hill.  Contamination (and re-contamination) is a daily experience and this spreads to a minimum of 500,000 people, and all wild life in the 1500 square mile site.

More information is available at www.silvervalleyaction.com, on Facebook and by following us on twitter @SilverVlyAction.  You may also sign our on-line petition which is also linked from the website.
