Please help us stop a proposed copper mine on the edge of the Mount St. Helens National Monument. The mine is planned within an area of the Gifford Pinchot National Forest that is seismically active. If plans for the mine were to go forward, it could threaten the quality of community drinking water, harm important stream habitat for salmon and steelhead, and destroy areas cherished by local hikers, campers and horseback riders. Moreover, a mine would likely impact ancient forests, the Tumwater Inventoried Roadless Area, and surrounding popular recreation areas.

Much of the land being considered for the mine was acquired by the U.S. Forest Service using Land and Water Conservation Funds (LWCF), which are appropriated by Congress to be used for recreation and conservation purposes, not for mining!
