The next meeting of the Town of Superior Community Working Group (CWG) will be held Wednesday, Feb. 10, 2016 at 6 p.m. in the Superior Chamber of Commerce meeting room. The group will review and discuss comments that they want to submit during the public scoping process for the Resolution Copper Project Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) being conducted by the U.S. Forest Service. It is expected that the environmental study will begin in the next few weeks.
The CWG is comprised of Town of Superior, Queen Valley, and other area residents and stakeholders. The group meets regularly to talk about the social and environmental issues, science, and policy, as well as the pros and cons of the proposed Resolution Copper Project. Topics include environmental impacts, health, safety, natural resource issues, engineering, water quantity and quality, geology, economics, air quality, community investments, recreational changes and other related subjects of community concern.
CWG meetings are held at the Superior Chamber of Commerce at 165 W. Main St. in Superior from 6-8 p.m., most often on the second Wednesday of each month. The public is invited and time is reserved on the agenda for public comments, questions, and discussion.
More information about the CWG as well as agendas, meeting summaries, and past presentations are available for public review at the Superior Chamber of Commerce offices and also at the Superior Public Library at 99 North Kellner Avenue, as well as online here.
