There is not way in hell the MNR will approve a license for Highlands that permits a public road through the middle of that, cars and trucks driving daily with the dust, blasting materials and a 200 foot drop on either side o fthe road? Nope, the road will be part of the deal, and as I pointed out it is worth at LEAST $500 million buckaroos. In the words of Honey Boo Boo, a dolla makes me hollar, but $500 mil? That's alota dollas.<br />Minebusterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10750253057911941693noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2964532116641527370.post-31862772881679853012012-09-24T21:56:52.966-04:002012-09-24T21:56:52.966-04:00If the roads remain in Public hands any buffer str...If the roads remain in Public hands any buffer strip Setbacks are permanently sterilized ,denying the proponent the opportunity to extract adjacent to the road.

Although the north headwaters is allocated to pit #4. To quote HC's application: "There are no significant natural heritage features within the Proposed Licence Area, with the exception of a very small portion (approximately 2 ha) of a large (approximately 275 ha) potentially significant woodland;”. This exception of course means there IS significant woodland within the licence area. By the way 2 ha = 5 acres, which is equivalent to 4 football fields.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2964532116641527370.post-75342700303746904532012-08-20T20:28:05.329-04:002012-08-20T20:28:05.329-04:00The map shows the licence limit to be just either ...The map shows the licence limit to be just either side of each line. We (the residents) would just have to keep paying for maintenance of the roads (52% of our municipal tax expenditure with only 9% revenue from industrial use of the roads). Little ribbons of road with 200 foot drop offs (of course, hidden by promised berms) on either side. Effectively, they'd have almost exclusive use of the roads without having to purchase them.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
