Have we not learned enough from our mistakes <br /> of the past gold mining that has happened since the 1800's.So I have heard from Zephyr that they are bringing <br /> jobs to Fremont County or Canon City. Really, how many people in this area have the experience they need to <br /> fill gold mining jobs.They are probably bringing in their own people from outside the area,this is my logical <br /> thought. How about the noise we will hear from the diesel generators that will be running 24/7 to run the mines. <br /> I moved here for the quiet, not to listen to the noise that will be created from Zephyr mine.They say it will be a <br /> small mine compared to Cripple Creek.So why deface the land for so little return.Why a let a foreign company <br /> come to Colorado and deface it and take what little gold there is to leave Colorado and the USA.Zephyr <br /> STATED more damage was caused by the development of the Dawson Ranch subdivision than the proposed <br /> mining of Zephyr gold mine.What a weak argument.When I move I sell my home and someone else takes over <br /> the control of the house and maintains the home.When Zephyr leaves they leave toxic tailing ponds,the <br /> disruption of water that is moving under ground,a big hole in the ground and a possible Superfund site.The <br /> use of Water should be enough to shut this mine down.With global warming,the lack of water for homes, <br /> farmers,and ranchers that have a lively hood and feed us. Do we want to take that risk that the mine will not <br /> disrupt the water flow under ground for the wells that feed the lower areas stated above for a few ounces of <br /> gold,you cannot eat gold! Let alone if somethings happens that the water of Grape Creek and the Arkansas <br /> River could possibly get contaminated,all tourism goes away all the way down stream to even possibly Pueblo. <br /> Again,for Gold that will go to Canada. I will step off of my Soap Box here. Please do not approve this <br /> Nightmare in the making.Thank You,a very concerned Citizen. <br /> Permit Number* <br /> Enter valid letter and then numbers,for example M122112211 or C123456789. <br /> M2021046 <br /> Permitting Action Type <br /> Select revision type or leave blank if comment pertains to a new permit application or NOI <br /> Permit Type <br /> County <br /> Fremont <br /> Enter one county only <br />
