	NRDC: Drinking Water Jeopardized in Arizona's Black Mesa Region
		An underground aquifer that sustains two Native American tribes in Arizona's arid Black Mesa region is showing signs of serious decline after three decades of pumping by the Peabody Coal Company, which drains more than a billion gallons of water from the reservoir each year to transport coal.
		Water that collects in the Black Mesa aquifer slowly percolates from the northwest sector of the Navajo reservation into a set of shallow, fingerlike projections near the Hopi reservation in the south, discharging after many years into a host of gentle washes and springs.
		Since Peabody began tapping the aquifer thirty years ago, water levels in some Black Mesa wells have dropped by more than 100 feet, many springs have slackened to less than half their original volume, and washes used by local farmers appear to have declined.
