Its clear that the Maine DEP and a few Legislators would pass a law allowing Metallic Mining in dangerous deposits in Maine. Allowing loosely written laws to pollute the pristine waters of Maine. Please send a message loud and clear No degradation of our waters! No Mountain top removal, No more mining superfund clean-ups allowed. Stop the permitting of Metallic Mining in Maine at once.

Please write your legislative representative and tell them to reject the Basis statement that allows unlimited pollution to the Waters of Maine and replace the statue that allows it.
