Funding Released For Environmental Assessment

Two First Nations groups are getting Federal funding to participate in the environmental assessment for the Griffith Iron Ore redevelopment project in Ear Falls.
Wabauskang First Nation is receiving $50,000, while the Metis Nation of Ontario is welcoming $37,000.
Both groups will be able to review and provide comments on the Environmental Impact Statement and draft Environmental Assessment Report.
Northern Iron Corp. is hoping to re-open the Griffith Mine, with plans to produce roughly 16,000 tonnes of ore per day.
