PHOENIX – The Tonto National Forest Supervisor’s decision to extend the public scoping period for the Resolution Copper Mining project and land exchange gives the public additional time to submit comments.
The public now has until July 18, 2016, to submit comments in one of the following ways:
» Email written comments to: [email protected]
» Send comments through the website: http://www.resolutionmineeis.us/comments
» Leave a voicemail or send a fax to 1-866-546-5718
» Mail a comment to:
Resolution EIS Comments
PO Box 34468
Phoenix, AZ 85067-4468
The Tonto National Forest will use the public comments to help identify significant issues for analysis and potential project alternatives as the Forest begins preparing an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) to consider and disclose the environmental effects from:
» Approval of the proposed plan of operations for mining activities on National Forest land.
» The exchange of land between Resolution Copper and the United States.
Resolution Copper has submitted a proposal to develop and operate an underground copper mine near Superior, Arizona. More information is available online at: http://www.resolutionmineeis.us/.
