Living in the communii:y of <br />man Luis after thirty (30) years of the smog, pollution and <br />noise of Denver was like receiving a reprieve from t}ie dark <br />side of Purgatory to return to Lden. <br />In Denver c•~e lived down-wind from Rocky Flats, and }laving <br />suffered five (5) miscarriages; I knoo~ from first h~rnd ex- . <br />perience what assurances of "safety" and "~]o Danger" mean. <br />They mean empty promises ~~hich ensure that industry continues <br />under a cloak of deceit and vague reports. This is ~•hat ~•e <br />got from Pocky Flats twenty-five (25) years ago. Tk~e reports <br />have been very different the last year as we all kncn-. <br />I have visited places in Montana and P7e~,~ P7exico ~,•here the <br />promise of returning the er_vironment to its former }~eauty <br />after the mininc. I'm sure you have seen those places too. <br />The communities are still awaiting the erasure of t}ie ugly <br />scars from their beauti`ul mour.tair.s. <br />Piembers of the P+. L.P..B., you Nave the opportunity to keep <br />an evil history _°rom tein~ repeated. Flease let your con- <br />science guide you in this matter. I formally protest the <br />issuinn of a minis, permit to Battle ^iountain fold :'`or the <br />concerns I have stated and many more. <br />inc rely • <br />~-i <br />uanita Malouff- xfinguez <br /> <br />
