Please Attend Public Hearing: February 10th, 7:00pm, at the Westwood Auditorium, the DEQ will hold a public hearing to decide if they will approve Kennecott’s "Woodland south road". The Application calls for the destruction of 31 acres of wetlands, and the cut of a 22.3 mile industrial haul road through the undeveloped Michigamme Highlands area.
The road will cross 100 year flood plains of a number of rivers, and there is no plan in place for dealing with fugitive dust. Not only will this road open up beautiful tracts of undeveloped land to commercial use, but will subject sensitive wetland areas and wildlife habitat to heavy metal pollution through fugitive dust.
