1. Sooner or later there WILL be a failure of some kind if they continue with the mining! Then it will be too late to be sorry! They could throw any amount of money at it but some things cannot be undone! We need to be smart and avoid putting our river and water table in jeopardy!

   P.S.: I have fished the Menominee River 12 times in the last 10 years. Each time I spent money for accommodations, restaurants and fly fishing guides with boats. When the river fishing is ruined I’ll no longer be traveling to the upper peninsula of Michigan. I have also fly fished the AuSable River for over 35 years. It is seriously threatened by a huge commercial fish farm and natural oil and gas drilling. When the AuSable is ruined by the fish farm phosphorus and oil and gas drilling I will no longer travel to the lower peninsula as well as the upper peninsula.

   I did some research into Aquila and it’s officers. They seem to be highly educated so they know the damage they will do. I also found they seemed to be backed by a giant Chinese Steel Company.
