The U.S. Forest Service has approved Mosquito Gold Company's plan to expand exploration activities at the CuMo Mining Project in the upper Boise River watershed.
The decision reached by Forest Supervisor Cecelia Seesholtz permits the Candian mining company to conduct a five year mineral exploration project, including the construction of up to 10.2 miles of new temporary roads and four new stream crossings.
The Forest Service received a remarkable 500 comments on the draft Environmental Assesment for the exploration project. How did the Forest Service respond to those comments? What conditions have been included in the permit? Does Idaho Families for Clean Water think the EA adequately addressed all of our concerns about clean water and habitat? Bring your lunch and your questions.
