The Save the Montebello Hills Task Force and the Sierra Club would like to invite you to see the documentary 'Split Estate', winner of eight awards in filmmaking. This film illustrates the devastating health effects of living near operating gas and oil fields.

“’Split Estate’ is an eye-opening examination of the consequences and conflicts that can arise between surface land owners in the western United States, and those who own and extract the energy and mineral rights below. This film is of value to anyone wrestling with rational, sustainable energy policy while preserving the priceless elements of cultural heritage, private enterprise above-ground, and the precious health not only of people but the land itself.” --Bill Richardson, Governor of New Mexico
