COMMUNITY CALL TO ACTION
FINAL REMINDER!

St Marys Cement's Aggregate Licence Application
Consultation Period is about to end on
Thursday May 21st!

The scope of this proposed massive industrial open pit mine is becoming clearer:

• Site Operations are planned, Monday through Saturday.
• Trucking operations stat at 6:00 a.m. with peak truck activities estimated at 1 truck movement every 26 seconds.
• Onsite excavation and crushing start at 7:00 a.m.
• Up to 3 million tonnes extracted per year.
• Untested theoretical groundwater system handling up to 90 million litres of water per day for the life of the project.

So far our Communities are responding in great numbers. Several hundred Objections and Comments have already been submitted. Hundreds attended the St Marys required formal Public Meeting. Our voices and our numbers are being registered.

If you haven't already done so, please take the time to submit your Objections and Comments. If you have already done so, get your friends, relatives and neighbours to add theirs.

Submitting objections and submitting comments are
two important steps our community needs to take.

If you were not able to join us at our Community Meeting on the 15th, there are two steps we need to execute in order to show our opposition against this Aggregate Licence Application:

1. Send in your Objections to both St Marys Cement and the Ministry of Natural Resources
2. Submit your Comments to the Environmental Registry by following the website instructions

It is Critical that we Do Both! The Deadline is May 21st!

Complete Instructions can be found on the website
