MONTANA, Jan 02 (Neo Natura) - From the Missoulian: "A controversial mining plan to tunnel beneath the Cabinet Mountains Wilderness north of Noxon has passed a 'significant milestone'."
The Kootenai National Forest issued a letter of determination notifying Revett Minerals, Inc. "that they may conduct surface disturbing activities as authorized by their Plan of Operations after all the applicable conditions have been met as outlined in the Kootenai's Record of Decision (ROD) with respect to the Evaluation Audit."
Additional information on the Rock Creek Project, including supplemental information reports on fisheries and wildlife, the record of decision, and final biological opinions, are available on the Kootenai National Forest website.
Revett Minerals has a website devoted to the Rock Creek Project which includes permitting documents and technical reports.
