Three Historic Victories
The Biden Administration has put protections in place for over 9.5 million acres of public land and water. In Alaska, 9.2 million acres of the Tongass National Forest is protected by the Roadless Rule and the EPA released its final clean water act decision, stopping Pebble mine. In the same week, 225,000 acres of the Boundary Waters area in Minnesota received long awaited protections. The Conservation Alliance (TCA) is proud to have supported these three priority campaigns thanks to your membership support – Bristol Bay and Tongass National Forest in Alaska, and the Boundary Waters in Minnesota.
