We will all recieve major benefits for appriciating wildlife and speaking for it, when it can't (verbally) speak for itself. The good in all will eventually have to be seen by you and (or) others so do what you know will benefit the future for all of us.

PLEASE STOP THE DESTRUCTION OF GOOD

The mine sounds like a potential environmental disaster. I noticed from reading about the proposal that environmental ramifications do not seem well-researched. As a toxicologist, I can tell you that it is important to have a plan for minimizing environmental impact as well as remediation of the site. This plan does not seem to have either worked out!

To Whom It May Concern:

We would like to express our opposition to a mine on the Yellow Dog Plains. This area is too ecologically fragile to place an industrial operation and a mine with a known risk to pollute. Additionally, whatever pollution occurs will eventually end up in Lake Superior. We cannot risk the contamination of such a large body of fresh water. Thank you for your consideration.

Please save the UP! It is one of the most beautiful parts of Michigan that I have visited and everyone is very nice up there. It would be a mistake that would cost our children their right to inherit a clean and productive state. Save the Salmon Trout River and tell Kennecott to keep their interests out of Michigan and for that matter, ALL the Great Lakes states!

Thanks,
John Sicamora
