This form is not intended for reporting of possible violations or illegal activity. Please be as specific <br />as possible. <br />Comment/Objection Narrative * <br />At great expense and efforts, the Arkansas River has largely been cleaned up after decades of pollution from <br />mining operations. This river must not be subjected to new pollutants from another mining operation! As a <br />former biology teacher and a 33 year career scientist with the Springfield Missouri Health Department <br />Laboratory, I can testify to the pollution from mining operations, fuel storage and chemical leaching from <br />industry. This type of pollution kills wildlife, pollutes rivers and groundwater and is a public health threat with <br />long-lasting adverse impacts. I object to this application because the impact on the upper Arkansas River basin, <br />and particularly the Leadville area, is significant. I am very concerned about the risk of cyanide contaminating <br />surface and groundwater. The potential for environmental catastrophe is too great to allow this project to move <br />forward. Please do not permit the Leadville Mill to reopen. <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 />Site Name <br />Perm ittee/Operator Name <br />
