Please be as specific <br /> as possible. <br /> Comment/Objection Narrative* <br /> Hi: I am deeply concerned about the proposed expansion of the Cross Mine near Caribou townsite, Colorado. <br /> This is an amazing and largely wild area close to the treasured Indian Peaks Wilderness Area.As a birder, I <br /> have been to the vicinity multiple times,as it is an amazing habitat for high altitude species,and was recently <br /> the first confirmed location in Boulder County for a Cassia Crossbill. <br /> The mine has a history of water quality violations and the water there feeds into the Boulder Water supply.we <br /> do not want heavy metals and other mine waste draining into the water drunk by some 100,000 people. <br /> The site is beautiful,and is largely owned by all people as National Forest. I am deeply opposed to a massive <br /> mining operation in this delicate and beautiful location.There is a well known four wheel drive route there;there <br /> is hiking,and many other land uses that are so very incompatible with a large scale mining operation which <br /> then generates both mine waste and polluted water. <br /> Please do not approve this massive expansion in mining giving the impact on wildlife,on human uses,and <br /> given the owners prior track record of not abiding by legal standards. <br /> Permitting Action Comment/Objection is Regarding <br /> New Permit • Change to Existing Permit <br />
