Pioneer Aggregates seeks to destroy over 180 acres of forest and wetlands
along Sequalitchew Creek in present day Dupont to expand their mine. In
addition, they are requesting to drain the Vashon Aquifer in a four mile
radius to achieve deeper dry-mining conditions.

The final EIS released on May 22nd reveals disastrous consequences. The
groundwater flow to nearby Sequalitchew Creek will nearly be eliminated.
Edmond Marsh will be dried up and the Kettle Marsh will be destroyed in its
entirety. Sequalitchew Creek, which once flowed from Sequalitchew Lake to
Puget Sound will likely never recover to its once abundant salmon-bearing
state, threatening orca recovery as well.

Please help oppose this project.
