Please be as specific <br /> as possible. <br /> Comment/Objection Narrative* <br /> I am in strong opposition to the re-opening of the Gold Cross Mine.The operation of this mine has historically <br /> been the cause of major water and land pollution.The proposed expansion by GIR from 9.99 to 205.7 acres <br /> would have devastating environmental impacts on our area's land and water.What sort of regulatory measures <br /> will be put in place to make sure that Barker Reservoir and the creeks that lead to it are not poisoned as <br /> before?How often will pollution measurements be taken and who will they be reported to?Who will enforce <br /> standards and prosecute violations?What will the consequences of violations be,and how will this company <br /> remediate any damage that they do?How quickly will they do the remediation?How will the waste rock be <br /> handled?What EXACT chemicals will be used in their processes?How large will the mill be,and what impact <br /> will it have?Have there been any environmental impact studies?The chemicals and heavy metals released in <br /> mining processes killed so many of our Western States rivers,many of them are still badly polluted—we don't <br /> need more destruction.These are some of the many questions I and MANY other residents of this area have. <br /> These chemicals and heavy metals are serious neurotoxins and have damaging impacts on every system in our <br /> bodies.The health of our community,especially our children, pets and wildlife should not be sacrificed for profit. <br /> Please deny the permit for the Gold Cross Mine.Sincerely,Teal Chimblo Fyrberg <br /> Permitting Action Comment/Objection is Regarding <br /> 9 New Permit Change to Existing Permit <br />
