Atlantic Gold (Beaver Dam Mine) Public Comment Opportunity

Dear Band Members,

The Atlantic Gold corporation has submitted responses for their latest round of information requests.

This means that there is a "Public Comment Period," where YOU can have your concerns considered during the regulators decision making process.

We ask that all Millbrook First Nation band members and community members share their thoughts and voice their concerns about an open pit gold mine operating near our reserve lands in Beaver Dam.

Here's how to comment:

• Send an e-mail to the regulator at bdmine-minebd@iaac-aeic.gc.ca
  

• Send an e-mail to Gerald Gloade at consultation@millbrookband.com who will submit on your behalf.
  

• Use the “Submit a comment” feature of the Canadian Impact Assessment Registry at www.canada.ca/ciar (Project Reference Number: 80111).

When responding, explain how the project will affect you Treaty/Aboriginal rights, health and wellness, access to Crown lands, food security, etc.

Deadline for commenting is Friday, December 17th.
