Elk-Kootenai Study Board Delays Draft Report on Coal Pollution
Original: Elk-Kootenai Study Board Postpones Draft Report on Transboundary Coal Pollution
The Elk-Kootenai Study Board has postponed its draft report on transboundary coal pollution affecting the Elk-Kootenai watershed along the Montana-British Columbia border. The board, formed to study selenium and other contaminants from coal mining flowing into shared waterways, has not given a public reason for the delay. The postponement affects communities and tribes awaiting findings on cross-border water contamination.
Why now: Residents, tribes and officials on both sides of the US-Canada border are awaiting the report's findings on mining pollution in shared waters.
