Do Kennecotts permit applications meet rules and regulations of Michigans new metallic hard rock mining law?
Yes. Kennecott has designed the project to meet or exceed the rules and requirements of the Michigan non-ferrous metallic mining law, but the final determination will be made by the MDEQ. Kennecott strongly supported the establishment of strict standards and regulations for nonferrous metallic mining before submitting applications to the MDEQ for its proposed Eagle Project. These regulations provide the company with clear standards that must be met for mining to occur; they provide the public with assurances that requirements for environmental protection are being met.
