F3 Opposes the Pinyon Plain Mine

F3 supports the sovereignty of indigenous tribes and peoples and believes the wishes of Indigenous peoples to close the Pinyon Plain Mine should be honored.

The Havasupai tribe have stated that uranium mining near the Grand Canyon poses real dangers to groundwater in the region. There is a risk of contamination of the ecologically important seeps and springs in the Grand Canyon area, including the Havasupai sole source of water. F3 supports Attorney General Mayes’ demand for an updated Environmental Impact Statement.

F3 also supports the Navajo and Hopi tribes in their efforts to stop the hauling of uranium ore through tribal lands.

We appreciate and support the positions taken by Coconino County (2024) and the City of Flagstaff (2017) to oppose the transportation of uranium ore through Flagstaff and Coconino County.
