Your Health and Water


DO YOU KNOW that exploratory drilling for uranium took place without the public’s knowledge or consent in 2007?

DO YOU KNOW that exploratory drilling may result in groundwater contamination and toxic water spills?

DO YOU KNOW that the VA Department of Mines, Mineral and Energy does not require uranium mining companies to notify the public before they can engage in uranium exploration?

DO YOU KN...
OW that although authorized by law, the Department of Mines, Mineral and Energy chose not to promulgate regulations to protect the environment, public health, and public transparency but allowed VUI to proceed without the public’s knowledge or consent?

DO YOU KNOW that since 2007, VUI has had the permit to drill renewed multiple times without any public notice or public participation?
 
You have the right to know!
