Begun nearly two decades ago, the battle for Oak Flat sits at the intersection of Indigenous rights and dispossession, religious liberty, public lands and private sales, and a growing demand for so-called green energy solutions in an era of <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ClimateCatastrophe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ClimateCatastrophe</span></a>.</p><p>"'As the court is aware, this case is not about an agency action. It’s about an act of Congress, in which Congress considered demands on a piece of property, balanced those interests, and made a decision,' said Joan Pepin, an attorney for the Forest Service, the agency that exchanged the land in a controversial deal nearly a decade ago. 'It decided that Oak Flat should be transferred to <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ResolutionCopper" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ResolutionCopper</span></a> so the third-largest copper ore deposit in the world can be mined.”</p><p>"The legislation in question — the Southeast Arizona Land Exchange and Conservation Act — was the product of a proposal then-Arizona Sens. <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/JohnMcCain" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>JohnMcCain</span></a> and <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/JeffFlake" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>JeffFlake</span></a> added to a must-pass defense authorization bill late one night in 2014. The addendum, known as a rider, incurred no congressional debate. </p><p>"Described by the San Carlos Apache as a 'midnight backroom deal,' the law transferred Oak Flat to Resolution Copper, a British-Australian concern jointly owned by the extractive giants Rio Tinto and BHP, both of which had sought access to the wildly lucrative ore deposit for years.</p><p>"The project centers on a 2,200-acre area known as Oak Flat Campground, part of the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/TontoNationalForest" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TontoNationalForest</span></a>, that has served as a centerpiece of Apache <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ReligiousCeremony" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ReligiousCeremony</span></a> and <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/cosmology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>cosmology</span></a> since before settler expansion into the West. To access the ore underneath, Resolution Copper will use a technique known as block cave mining, which over several years will turn the sacred mountain into a two-mile-wide crater deep enough to hide a skyscraper.</p><p>"Initiation of construction hinges on the publication of an <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/EnvironmentalImpact" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>EnvironmentalImpact</span></a> study from the Forest Service, which, under the law passed in 2014, starts a 60-day countdown before the transfer of the land from the federal government to the mining company must happen.</p><p>"Luke Goodrich, the lead attorney for Apache Stronghold, an Arizona-based nonprofit that brought the lawsuit to stop the transfer, told the panel of judges that the destruction of Oak Flat was a direct and flagrant violation of the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ReligiousFreedomRestoratioAct" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ReligiousFreedomRestoratioAct</span></a>. Violation of the statute requires the imposition of a “substantial burden” on a person or group’s ability to practice their faith.</p><p>"'A fine is a substantial burden, but here the government is doing something far worse,' Goodrich said, 'not just threatening fines, but authorizing the complete physical destruction of Oak Flat, barring the Apaches from ever accessing it again and ending their core religious exercises forever.'</p><p>"In January 2021, five days before leaving office, the administration of President Donald <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Trump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Trump</span></a> released a study supporting the creation of the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/OakFlatMine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>OakFlatMine</span></a>. <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ApacheStronghold" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ApacheStronghold</span></a> had filed a federal lawsuit seeking a preliminary injunction to stop the project.</p><p>"Unsuccessful in the attempt, the group filed an emergency appeal to the 9th Circuit the following month. Six hours before its deadline to respond passed, the Forest Service — by then, in March 2021, under the leadership of President Joe Biden — announced that it was withdrawing the environmental impact study and postponing the land transfer.</p><p>"A three-judge panel of 9th Circuit dismissed Apache Stronghold’s case in October 2021 but agreed to hear the case again before a full panel last winter. The unusual decision set the stage for Tuesday’s hearing.</p><p>"While the postponement of the project had given opponents of the mine a moment of respite in the long-running battle, the government’s testimony this week confirmed that the Biden administration is moving forward with a new environmental impact study and stands behind the controversial land swap."</p><p>Read more:<br><a href="https://theintercept.com/2023/03/22/oak-flat-mine-arizona-biden/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">theintercept.com/2023/03/22/oa</span><span class="invisible">k-flat-mine-arizona-biden/</span></a></p><p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/HumanRightsViolations" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>HumanRightsViolations</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/CulturalGenocide" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>CulturalGenocide</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/CopperMining" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>CopperMining</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Mining" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Mining</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/CorporateColonialism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>CorporateColonialism</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/EnvironmentalRacism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>EnvironmentalRacism</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/IndigenousNews" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>IndigenousNews</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/SaveOakFlat" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SaveOakFlat</span></a><br><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/NativeAmericanNews" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NativeAmericanNews</span></a></p>
