SPRING GATHERING TO SAVE WARD VALLEY FROM A NUCLEAR WASTE DUMP

Join us for a celebration of the Beautiful Mojave Desert and to Protect
Endangered Species and Native American Rights.  APRIL 11 THROUGH 15, 1996

Ward Valley is located 22 miles west of Needles, California, in the
beautiful East Mojave desert.  Plans are to bury long-lasting and highly
dangerous radioactive wastes from nuclear power plants in shallow, unlined
trenches above an aquifer and just 18 miles from the Colorado River.  Ward
Valley is located directly adjacent to the new Mojave National Preserve
and is surrounded by five wilderness areas.  Area Indian tribes consider
Ward Valley sacred homeland and have vowed to defend thier traditions,
land, water and culture.  Ward Valley is critical habitat for the
threatened Desert Tortoise.

Community meals, water and sanitation provided.  Come prepared for desert
camping.  We will walk lightly on the land, protect critical habitat, and
leave no traces.  We are asking for a $15 donation in advance, $20 at the
site.  NO ONE TURNED AWAY FOR LACK OF FUNDS.

For more info, registration forms and to volunteer, Call:
