Request a detailed map and list of proposed environmental monitoring stations, specifically identifying locations within Melgund Township and the Revell area used for local harvesting.
Strategic Rationale
"The Proponent's submission promises to monitor air, water, land, plants, and animals but lacks geographic specificity regarding where these monitors will be placed. Residents of Dyment and Borups Corners rely on the Revell area for hunting, fishing, and recreation; therefore, monitoring must occur in the specific locations where locals interact with the environment. This is an opportunity for the Proponent to improve the transparency of their Environmental Protection Program. By including monitoring stations in areas identified by the community, the Proponent can provide evidence-based assurance that local food sources and recreational lands remain safe. The expected result is a monitoring network that reflects actual local land use rather than just generic site-boundary data."
