To whom it may concern,
I have recently heard of this proposal for mining exploration and, as a resident of the area, would like to take this opportunity to oppose.
I have brought my grandchildren to Wolf Lake on many occasions, and am now lucky enough to have great-grandchildren who I hope will be able to enjoy this are as well. In other instances the residents and campers of the area have opposed clear cutting and herbiside spraying in our area, to no avail. I mention my grandchildren and great grandchildren to remind you that your decisions to harm and disrupt our ecosystems affect not only the residents today, but generations to come. Disrupting these forests with exploration that leads to cutting down trees, oil spills and damaging waterbeds, strips away future generations opportunity to enjoy the areas we have been so fortunate to enjoy, and continues to create an ever more unstable future for them. Harmful practices like these disregard their long term impact on the environment. I am not the one who will suffer from this. I have long enjoyed the forest with my children and grand children. It is our great grandchildren and their children who will suffer from the consequences of these actions, and the negligence to take care of the earth we live on.

I hope you will consider this in your decision making and as you move forward.
Thank you
