A coalition of Indigenous, conservation, and community groups today sounded the alarm on the proposed Bridger Pipeline Expansion, which could transport more tar sands oil per day than the controversial, and now defunct, Keystone XL project if approved. The project would be capable of providing up to 1.13 million barrels of oil per day. Tar sands oil is one of the world’s dirtiest and environmentally destructive fuel sources.

Roadless Areas serve as critical refugia for countless fish and wildlife species facing habitat alteration from climate change and other human-induced activities. They offer more stable, sheltered environments ensuring retention of biodiversity and allowing populations to persist, and later to recolonize surrounding areas. 

Stop the Bridger Pipeline Expansion — Your Voice is Needed!

A proposed 647-mile crude oil pipeline would cross Montana's wildlife habitat, conservation lands, and vital drinking water sources from the Canadian border to Wyoming.
