StopPortolaMine has stopped the mine. The miner has dropped his application to Plumas County for his mine permit. He sold the property to an environmental investor group. We are happy.

If our aquifer dries up from this mine, 37 properties would be rendered undevelopable due to the lack of water. Water flowing from the breached aquifer will also potentially wash down mining toxins into residential areas and nearby rivers. #StopPortolaMine#SaveOurWater
The proposed mining operation will put the aquifer at risk of depletion, drying up residential wells. The amount of water consumed from the mine puts the creeks, springs, and meadows that local livestock and wildlife depend on at risk of drying up! #StopPortolaMine#SaveOurWater
According to the NSAQMD, the proposed Portola mine will make it impossible for Eastern Plumas county to attain minimum health standards and "negate years of work at great monetary expense" to maintain clean air in Portola! #StopPortolaMine#AirQuality
