Na terça-feira (24/4/2012) o Governo do Acre realizou um encontro com a sociedade civil do vale do Juruá para IMPOR A PROSPECÇÃO DE GÁS E PETRÓLEO NA REGIÃO.
A partir do mês de maio a empresa Geo Radar deve começar a detonação de explosivos no subsolo nas chamadas “linhas de prospecção”. Esta fase é chamada de prospecção sísmica terrestre.
A representante da Agência Nacional do Petróleo, Marina Abelha, disse que o interesse da ANP em realizar a prospecção de gás e petróleo na região faz parte da estratégia nacional de conhecer as potencialidades do subsolo da região.
A fala do vice-governador, César Messias, deixou claro que não querem ouvir ninguém, mais uma obra que vem de cima para baixo: “O impacto ambiental de Urucum é menor do que o de um posto de lavagem de carros”, disse, referindo-se à atual tecnologia de exploração.
Só pensam nos royalties, ainda mais numa região como a do Juruá, onde, nas palavras do vice-governador, já é dada como certa a exploração de petróleo e gás: “Poderemos fazer investimentos pesados em saúde, educação, infraestrutura e principalmente, em meio ambiente”.
A história da prospecção de petróleo e gás na região do Juruá é da década de 1940. Até o momento era inviável. Contudo, com a BR 364, aberta de inverno a verão e a ferrovia Cruzeiro do Sul-Puccalpa, também seguindo de vento em popa, o projeto ganhou fôlego.
De acordo com o mapa mostrado pela empresa Geo Radar, a exploração afetará diretamente: populações ribeirinhas; indígenas Shawãdawa, do Rio Bagé; Nawa e Nukini, localizados na Serra do Divisor; e principalmente os não contactados, que perambulam pelas cabeceiras de alguns rios da região. Indiretamente, serão afetados os Ashaninka do Amônia, Apolima-Arara e Katukina.
Como ficarão os indígenas isolados que já sofrem a pressão desse tipo de exploração econômica do lado peruano e estavam cada vez mais se refugiando em terras brasileiras?

On Tuesday (24/04/2012) the Government of Acre had a meeting with civil society Valley Juruá to IMPOSE OIL AND GAS EXPLORATION IN THE REGION.
As of May the company Geo Radar should start subsurface explosions called "lines of exploration." This phase is called the seismic ground.
The representative of the National Petroleum Agency, Marina Bee, said the interest of the NPA are in carrying out prospecting for oil and gas in the region, which is part of the national strategy to determine the potential of the subsoil of the region.
The speech of the vice-governor, César Messiah, made it clear that he will not listen to anyone. It is another instance of a top down approach: "The environmental impact of Annatto is smaller than that of a car washing station," he said, referring to the current exploration technology.
Just think of the royalties, even in a region like the Juruá, where, in the words of the vice-governor, the exploration for oil and gas is taken for granted. He further states: "We make heavy investments in health, education, infrastructure, and especially inenvironment. "
The history of oil and gas exploration in the region of Juruá began in the 1940s. But at that time it was not feasible. However, with BR 364, the beginning of summer and during the winter the access to the rail-Puccalpa Southern Cross, has enabled the operation to proceed in full swing.
According to the map shown by the company Geo Radar, the operation will directly affect: the river populations of ; indigenous Shawãdawa, Rio Bage; Nukini and Nawa, located in the Serra do Divisor, and especially those uncontacted peoples that roam the headwaters of some rivers of region. Indirectly affected are the Ashaninka of Ammonia, and Katukina Apolima-Arara.
How will the isolated Indigenous peoples, that are already under pressure of this kind of economic exploitation on the Peruvian side, and were increasingly taking refuge in Brazilian lands deal with this situation?

The "official" News, do not mention the impact this project will have on the Indigenous populations. Indeed, there has been no mention of Indigenous oral testimony/input into the process (or opinion of Funai), despite the fact that Brazil is a signatory to the ILO Convention 169. http://www.vozdoacre.com/portal/03/perfuracoes-de-petroleo-e-gas-terao-inicio-no-vale-do-jurua/
