Getting Your Arms Around 381 Years of History

We’ve lived in northeastern Montana and western North Dakota for most of the last 42 years, and we’ve visited the Badlands hundreds of times. Whenever we return we learn something new about the seemingly forbidding area. We’ve also witnessed the mushrooming of the oil and gas industry in the region along with hundreds of spills. We joined Badlands Conservation Alliance as a way to have a more impactful voice on the treatment of this land. With BCA’s guidance we’ve written letters to the North Dakota Industrial Commission commenting on the oil and gas development.
