Please be as specific <br /> as possible. <br /> Comment/Objection Narrative* <br /> Under Grand Island Resources'(GIR)ownership of the Cross and Caribou Mines in Boulder County there has <br /> been a disregard for the health and safety of the western Boulder County community.This has evidence by the <br /> Water Quality Control Division having issued a Cease and Desist Order to GIR in for violations of its discharge <br /> permit, including exceedances heavy metals.The geographic location the Cross and Caribou Mines make them <br /> perfectly located to pollute both ground and surface water supplies that the Nederland community depends <br /> upon.Allowing renewed operations and expansion of the Cross and Caribou Mines is very likely to result in <br /> more discharge exceedances that will necessarily imperil the health of the community and wildlife. In addition, <br /> the public lands directly surrounding the mines sees significant and increasing public recreation. Expansion of <br /> mining operations and expansion of commercial activity will impact and degrade the public's enjoyment of this <br /> beautiful and accessible area for outdoor recreation. I implore the Division of Reclamation, Mining and Safety to <br /> reject any reopening or expansion of the Cross and Caribou Mines,and to prioritize the protection of the <br /> surrounding community and the ability of all Coloradans to enjoy the beautiful lands surrounding the mines. <br /> Permitting Action Comment/Objection is Regarding <br /> New Permit • Change to Existing Permit <br />
