Who got the shaft?

Mining Opponents say government uranium regulations
don't go far enough


Megan O'Toole, Telegraph-Journal
Saturday July 5th, 2008
Excerpt:


"They don't get it," said David Coon, policy director of the
Conservation Council of New Brunswick,

renewing the call for a ban on
uranium mining.

"New Brunswickers don't want to have uranium mined on their properties,
period.

They want it left in the ground because of its toxicity and the
hazards associated with taking it out of the ground."

Coon said it was
positive, however, that the environment minister moved to close a loophole
in the Clean Water Act by banning mining in designated watersheds.


Excerpt 2:

The move to an electronic staking system does little more than
create an illusion, said Carl Urquhart, the Tory MLA for York.

"It's not
the little blue ribbons that we don't want;

we don't want any uranium
mining on our property," he said, noting the 300-metre buffer is
insignificant.

"By coming out and saying we're eliminating the flags,
you've just buried the problem.

Liberals change uranium mining rules
Adam Bowie, The Daily Gleaner
Saturday July 5th, 2008
Excerpt:

Julie Michaud, the Conservation Council of New Brunswick's climate
action outreach co-ordinator, said the amendments miss the point.

She said
New Brunswickers asked for a ban on all uranium exploration and mining at
recent information sessions.

"(The province is) being pretty selective in
what concerns they're listening to," she said. "They've reduced the
concerns of New Brunswickers to concerns about property rights, although
that is a concern for many.

New Brunswickers are clearly saying that they
do not want uranium exploration and mining in this province."

Uranium moves miss the point
Editorial, Times & Transcript
Saturday July 5th, 2008
Excerpt:

Already the plan to change the claim staking process (now it is
visible on the ground via ribbons to mark claimed areas) to an online map
system is being viewed, fairly or not, as an attempt to hide information
from the public.

At least with the ribbons, people know instantly that
something is afoot. Nor does temporarily suspending claims staking until
this system is up and running address concerns.

It will apply to uranium
claims retroactively but it's unclear if it will make any difference.

Gov't changes mining rules
Critics say limits on exploration don't go far enough

Mary Moszynski, Times & Transcript

Excerpt:


"All that does is out of sight, out of mind.
People won't know

until they get notified," said Yvonne Devine ofthe southeastern chapter of
the Conservation Council of New Brunswick.

"They're a long way from what
people would really want, but it's a start," she said. Devine said the
regulations are a "good effort" and welcomed a complete ban in watersheds.


"As long as they can ensure that that happens," she said.

"With one guy
working for the department in charge of monitoring, it's going to be hard
to make that happen."
