Protect Chaco
Trump’s Bureau of Land Management moved to remove a 10-mile buffer zone that protects the Greater Chaco Region from new oil and gas leasing. This came after the administration attempted to slash protections for the Bears Ears and Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monuments, apparently to also allow for expanded mining and drilling.
See our press release and please take a moment to submit a comment to BLM (deadline July 29) opposing this move. You can share the action with your friends, too. It is online at sc.org/chaco. In July 2026, our Chapter Director Camilla Feibelman spoke about this issue with Univision.
To learn more, or to find out how you can help, please contact Bill Rodgers at bill.rodgers@sierraclub.org.
Join the Bosque Action Team
Come to the monthly meetings and help strategize about how we can preserve and protect the Bosque. Contact Richard Barish at richard.barish@gmail.com to learn more and get involved.
Become a Bosque Sentinel
To help protect what makes our Bosque so special, we’re forming a Bosque Sentinels Program. If you are interested, you can select a part of the Bosque that you’d like to monitor. You’ll get to know the terrain and be able to report to Open Space if there are litter, fire or vandalism problems. You’ll get to know the different projects that the Army Corps of Engineers, Middle Rio Grande Conservancy District or the city are carrying out and be able to interpret those projects to other users. You also might become a trained outings leader and take people to visit the area. If you’d like to get involved please email savethebosque@gmail.com.
Meet a few of our great Bosque Sentinels here.
