LSPWA director Diane Laush used her extensive background as a wildlife biologist to develop comments on the proposed Ray Mine Tailings Storage Facility near Kearny, Arizona. On March 8, 2016, the LSPWA board unanimously approved sending these comments to the Army Corps of Engineers, as part of the process for developing an Environmental Impact Statement. Below are the links to the draft Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) and to the comments sent on behalf of the LSPWA:
Here is the link for the 329-page draft EIS: http://www.spl.usace.army.mil/Portals/17/docs/regulatory/Projects/Ray_Mine/Draft_EIS/Ray_Mine_DEIS-508.pdf.
