I attended last night's meeting with ADEQ re: water and Hudbay's proposals to mine. One comment by R McSpaddon especially piqued my interest in that it mirrored my thoughts: the history Hudbay has of its mining practices in Manitoba, Canada; Cuzco, Peru... The response ADEQ gave blew off the concern as human rights issue... not our jurisdiction. The bigger point is that Hudbay has a significan history of abuse and thereby merits the highest scrutiny by all agencies involved.
Just one of many thoughts on the meeting. It was rowdy and that is a good thing!
