Too many issues have been <br />swept under the carpet. <br />Isn't an environmental impact statement required to <br />open a mine, particularly one that is adjacent to federal <br />land, and near a federal wilderness area? <br />And what about health concerns for the citizens of <br />Coaldale? Why are we putting a mine right next door to so <br />many people? The mine application says that it was first <br />opened in 1907. Don't you think things have changed since <br />then? <br />We do not want this mine reopened. Please listen to <br />the people of the town. Why don't you have a public <br />hearing here? <br />Sincerely / <br />C'~ ~ ~ ~a~~ ~~ ~ <br />~ l 9 ~~~ ~~~ °~~ <br />
