Correct Turnipgreen. There is far more damage being done by all the clearing that is being done on or near the lake. We see homesite after homesite where the owner has completely removed everything but the dirt (or mud) from their lot. Erosion screens are minimally effective in controlling soil discharge into the lake. We are against the mine and the subsequent discharge issues that will follow, but we as lake front owners (developers included) should get our own act in order also. Thanks for the contact phone numbers> we will be making some calls voicing our opposition to the mine.
