Subject: Mining Permit Application
To Whom it May Concern,
The mining permit application for Waycaster Mining Co, Inc is concerning because my
family and neighbors use one of the springs on the property joining the lot where Mr.
Waycaster wants to mine. Most of the families who use the springs need a good water
supply for not only their home but, for their gardens as well. We raise much of our own food
and put it away for the winter. There is not a public water system in our area. If the spring is
contaminated or the vein pinched off, it will be catastrophic.
I have attached a photo of the area. The lots with a yellow dot receive their water from the
springs. The blue dot represents where the springs are located.
I am asking that you deeply consider these issues before the permit is issued.
Sincerely,
Matthew Wilson
