Your voices were heard - mining company denied water from the Smith

Some good news regarding that proposed nickel mine at the headwaters of the Smith river, one of the crown jewels of the National Wild and Scenic River program.

The Oregon Water Resources Department has denied the application from the Red Flat Nickel Corp, in part due to the overwhelming substantive comments they received from you, the public, and public trust agencies.
