Medicine Hat city council will consider lending its voice to opposition of a coal mining proposal near the headwaters of the South Saskatchewan river basin.
The proposed Grassy Mountain coal mine would be located in the Crowsnest Pass, just north of the town of Blairmore.
Mayor Ted Clugston said Monday that the issue has been raised by some residents and council discussed the matter in its closed session prior to Monday’s regular meeting.
