Please be as specific <br /> as possible. <br /> Comment/Objection Narrative <br /> As a 45+year resident of Leadville, Lake County, Co, I am very concerned about the expansion of the milling <br /> operations by CJK and the use cyanide.The potential for environmental contamination and degradation is <br /> significant,particularly considering the proximity to the Arkansas River,wildlife habitat and residences. <br /> Additionally,the heavy truck traffic will impact our city streets and highways and be a source of noise and <br /> pollution.The mine tailings they seek to disturb for their own financial gain are part of Leadville's history and are <br /> actually a draw for some visitors.They are stable now,but they could be a source of air and water pollution if <br /> disturbed.Trucking them down city streets could create a health hazard for Leadville's residents and a danger <br /> to our children.Our tourism depends on the quiet,small town atmosphere,outdoor recreation and the history of <br /> mining,and I believe this industrial operation would be detrimental to this.Also concerning is the potential for a <br /> major environmental catastrophe.The EPA worked for years to remedy the contamination left behind by the <br /> industry of the past. I have no confidence in CJK's ability to operate a safe operation in our home. Please reject <br /> this project. <br /> Permit Number* <br /> Enter valid letter and then numbers,for example M1977999, M1999777UG or C1981201. <br /> M1990057 <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 /> Lake <br /> Enter one county only <br /> I <br />
