Idaho Mining Association Busy Lobbying State Legislature on Water Issues
The Idaho Mining Association is busying lobbying the Idaho Legislature concerning to bills related to water resources. The first bill seeks to bar the Idaho Department of Environmental Quality from amending the 1992 Idaho Ground Water Quality Plan to require mining operations to remediate polluted ground water when overlaying mines are closed. The second bill would exempt mining water rights from Idaho’s forfeiture and abandonment statutes.
