When a new mining proposal is put forth by either Twin Metals or another mining company in the Superior National Forest they will have to adhere to existing policies. The only thing Nolan and Emmers amendment will do is defund the preemptive and unwarranted study the Obama administration started. Nobody is being forced to grant more mineral leases. There is no EIS requested for the Chippewa National Forest for any current project. When talking about the Antiquities Act how about the fact that the elitist environmentalists wanted to use that to take away forever the Superior and Chippewa National Forests to any kind of development whether it be mining, logging etc. The Antiquities Act has been the most abused law as far as environmental reasons over the last 25 years. The law states to use the smallest acreage to preserve a monument. Taking millions of acres at a time does not meet that standard. Mineral leases would still be under control of either the state MNDNR or federal Govt. thru the BLM. Nobody would be forced to issue mineral leases.
