Intent To Prepare a Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS) for Clean Water Act Section 404 Permit Application by Crandon Mining Company To Construct and Operate the Crandon Mine in Forest County, Wisconsin

The St. Paul District, Corp of Engineers, has received a Section 404 permit application from Crandon Mining Company to develop and operate the Crandon Mine which would include the discharge of fill material in isolated wetlands and wetlands adjacent to Swamp Creek in Forest County, Wisconsin. Zinc and copper would be the primary materials mined. Nationally significant natural, cultural, and Native American resources exist in the project area. Construction and operation of the mine could result in significant impacts to these resources. In order to thoroughly evaluate the permit action, an Environmental Impact Statement will be prepared.
