Please be as specific <br /> as possible. <br /> Comment/Objection Narrative* <br /> I am concerned about the proposed expansion of the Caribou and Cross Mines,given the lack of evidence that <br /> these operations are currently profitable.Grand Island Resources has already invested over$6.2 million in road <br /> repairs and environmental cleanup,yet the mines have not been producing enough gold to justify these costs. <br /> Approving an expansion without clear financial viability raises serious risks. If the company goes bankrupt,the <br /> burden of environmental remediation and cleanup will likely fall on taxpayers and the local government.Given <br /> the history of regulatory issues and the high cost of maintaining compliance,this expansion seems like a <br /> financial and environmental liability rather than a responsible investment. I urge decision-makers to require <br /> more transparency on profitability and long-term sustainability before granting any permits. <br /> Permitting Action Comment/Objection is Regarding <br /> New Permit Change to Existing Permit <br /> Permit Number* (') <br /> Enter a valid permit number <br /> M1977410 <br />
