LETHBRIDGE, ALTA. The Livingstone Landowners Group says it hopes the Alberta government and province s coal consultation committee will heed the findings of a new report that recommends coal mining in the headwaters of the Oldman River not proceed. “What this is demonstrating is one coal mine is a problem. Two coal mines are a bigger problem,” said LLG Secretary Bobbi Lambright. “And if we got more coal mines, then you’ve got a huge problem,” The study, conducted by scientists and ecologists with the Alces Group, an environmental consulting company, concluded new coal mines on the Eastern Slopes would have a significant and irreversible impact on the Oldman River watershed.
