Please be as specific <br /> as possible. <br /> Comment/Objection Narrative <br /> I live nearby to this proposed uranium mine and I concerned with how close it is to the National Conservation <br /> Area proposed by Sen. Bennet and Rep. Boebert and the Dolores Canyon WSA.The project permit boundaries <br /> also extend inside the NCA as well as two Colorado NHCP areas.This intrusion into special areas highly <br /> valued for their scenic, historic,cultural,and ecological values is disturbing and unacceptable. <br /> In addition to the intrusion on these areas, uranium mining has a long solid history of poisoning our <br /> communities with mine tailings,water pollution,and air pollution.These mines have created wastelands across <br /> the western United States and have been killing people for decades.The bonding and clean up requirements if <br /> this project is allowed to move forward(which I think it should not)need to be extremely high and made in cash <br /> deposits to prevent the standard industry practice of extraction and then claiming bankruptcy and leaving <br /> taxpayers the clean up bill. <br /> Finally, Uranium mining should be considered an extremely low value mineral given the brutal impacts to people <br /> living nearby the mine and the life cycle impacts of this mineral. Uranium is used to produce fuel for nuclear <br /> reactors which are quickly shutting down and the industry is dying. Let it die and do not allow this project to go <br /> forward. Every time uranium is removed from the ground we create a problem that will last for so long into the <br /> future that we cannot fully appreciate the time scale and impacts.As a reminder we still do not have a <br /> permanent repository for spent nuclear fuel. <br /> Permit Number* <br /> Enter valid letter and then numbers,for example M1977999, M1999777UG or C1981201. <br /> P2023018 <br /> Permitting Action Type <br /> Select revision type or leave blank if comment pertains to a new permit application or NOI <br /> I <br /> Permit Type <br />
