Unfortunately,this area does not have an abundance of <br /> public wildlife areas. For those that want to get out in the wilderness,most of the land in the area is privately <br /> owned and not accessible to the public.As the Grape Creek Area has an abundance of wildlife available for <br /> public use, I do not want to see it turned into a gold mining area which will reduce and destroy much of the <br /> wildlife and fauna in the area.Although I do not live in Canon City, I use the area for recreational play,that <br /> would be severely effected if a mine were to open in the area. <br /> Wild and scenic places are slowly being destroyed and developed in the name of progress and profit. I ask that <br /> you do not issue a permit for this mine that will deeply destroy a recreational and wildlife area that is used by <br /> many.We cannot compare the value of a recreational area to the profits of a mine. Recreational use is open to <br /> everyone to use and not for the profit of a few. Please do not issue the permit to Zephyr Minerals and leave it to <br /> public recreational use for everyone. <br /> Thank you <br /> Joyce Levine <br /> Permit Number* <br /> Enter valid letter and then numbers,for example M122112211 or C123456789. <br /> M2021046 <br /> Permitting Action Type <br /> Change of Status <br /> Select revision type or leave blank if comment pertains to a new permit application or NOI <br /> Permitting Action Sequence <br /> Company Seeking Permit <br />
