All 49 who spoke were opposed to the permit and the majority expressed opposition to the entire STAMP project. Speaking in opposition were numerous members of the Tonawanda Seneca Nation, including titleholders, as well as allies from groups including the Buffalo Niagara <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Waterkeeper" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Waterkeeper</span></a>, <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/SierraClub" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SierraClub</span></a>, <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/SaveOntarioShores" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SaveOntarioShores</span></a>, SUNY ESF, University of Rochester, Western New York Environmental Alliance and the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/CleanAirCoalition" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CleanAirCoalition</span></a> of Western New York. In the words of Tonawanda Seneca Nation Sub-Chief Scott Logan (Bear Clan), 'If this permit were to be granted, it would be an immense injustice to <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/MotherEarth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MotherEarth</span></a>. And as a <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Haudenosaunee" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Haudenosaunee</span></a> person, and all the Haudenosaunee People in here, that is our birthright. It is our, what we are here for, is to protect the earth. And the STAMP Project goes a hundred percent against what we are — what we’re all about.'</p><p>"The STAMP site is located immediately adjacent to the Nation’s present-day reservation boundaries. Indeed, the most intensive manufacturing will be located along the project’s border with the Nation. However, as their Council of Chiefs has repeatedly stated in public comment letters and letters to agencies responsible for granting permits sought by the developers, the project’s approval process has continuously and egregiously undermined the Nation’s <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/sovereignty" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>sovereignty</span></a>. In violation of their status as a federally recognized <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/TribalNation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TribalNation</span></a>, the Tonawanda Band of Seneca’s Council of Chiefs – their traditional governance structure – has not been afforded a robust consultation process in decision-making about the project. Instead, opportunities for consultation have been perfunctory at best, and have focused almost exclusively on mitigation.</p><p>"In their official letter to the NYDEC regarding the proposed Part 182 Take Permit (mentioned above), the Nation’s Council of Chiefs wrote that, 'The Tonawanda Seneca Nation opposes this habitat destruction and would directly be impacted by it. The permit would allow for unmitigated incidental take on Nation lands when, inevitably, increased human presence, noise, excavation, light and traffic would disturb these species and turn them away… We do not want our Territory, people or future generations to be burdened by the negative impacts of these projects. This is a human rights issue for the Tonawanda Seneca Nation and the Haudenosaunee, who would bear a disproportionate burden from the industrialization of the land at STAMP.'</p><p>"The Council of Chiefs has demanded that a supplemental Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) be carried out to assess the possible impacts on the Nation, its culture and its environment; to date there has been no such study and the 2012 STAMP EIS (which did not analyze impacts on the nation) is badly outdated."</p><p><a href="https://globaljusticeecology.org/tonawanda-seneca-nation/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">globaljusticeecology.org/tonaw</span><span class="invisible">anda-seneca-nation/</span></a></p><p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ForestDefenders" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ForestDefenders</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/SenecaNation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SenecaNation</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/FirstNations" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FirstNations</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/NativeAmericanRights" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NativeAmericanRights</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/CulturalGenocide" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CulturalGenocide</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/EnvironmentalRacism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>EnvironmentalRacism</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Greenwashing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Greenwashing</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/HydrogenPower" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HydrogenPower</span></a></p>
