Greater Yellowstone Coalition: Interior Department extends temporary timeout on Yellowstone mining for 20 years
20 years isn’t enough, but it’s not bad!
We’re so excited to hear Montanans and people from around the world spoke up and supported the ban on mines in Yellowstone. Watch our film, in partnership with Greater Yellowstone Coalition and Sage Fly Fishing, titled Last Call. It’s our effort to align fly-fishermen behind the issue.
From the Greater Yellowstone Coalition:
Victory! Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke extended the temporary timeout on mining at Yellowstone’s northern gateway today for another 20 years, giving us a critical safety net to work with Montana’s Congressional delegation to pass a bill that will keep mines away from Yellowstone, forever.
