Hinweis der Redaktion
- In hearings on this issue, Sen. Waxman summarized the environmental justice issue – that this situation would not be allowed anywhere else (pause to give audience time to read).
- For over 42 years, a US law called the Bennett Freeze prohibited any home repairs or community improvements in most of the western Navajo Nation. The community infrastructure has deteriorated. The ability to respond is further limited by economic stresses, such as low income levels. While city residents pay 30 cents for a hundred gallons of water, the cost for the water haulers can be over $25 for a hundred gallons, so that some of the poorest people in the country have to pay 100x as much for a basic necessity of life.
- We helped people interface with the health care delivery system and uranium contamination programs. We also worked with the radon testing program of the Navajo Nation EPA.
