MORE INFO ABOUT THIS "BOOK":

Based in the Greater Denver Area, Ms. Mellen is one of the attorneys who represented the activist organizations that brought suit against the US Fish and Wildlife Service in the summer of 2017 working to halt the opening of the Rocky Flats National Wildlife Refuge until FWS complies with environmental laws. Ms. Mellen recently gave a presentation to the Rocky Flats Stewardship Council rebutting the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment's endorsement that the site is safe. Ms. Mellen also participated in the Longmont Fracking Case at the Colorado Supreme Court through the University of Denver Sturm College of Law's Environmental Law Clinic. Ms. Mellen's earlier education is in industrial engineering and investigative journalism. She has worked in the National Security Clearance industry at DOE and DOD locations such as Los Alamos, Lawrence Livermore Labs, Edwards Air Force Base and China Lake Naval Weapons Station.
