EPA Project Update

The EPA project to mitigate the Sheldon Mine Tailings has begun this morning. Expect large heavy traffic most of today as heavy construction is arriving. Most of the equipment will be unloaded at the mailboxes at the junction of Sheldon, Walker, and Pine Mountain Roads. Pilot cars are running and traffic on Walker Rd. will be slow for the better part of today.

Traffic control will have a flagman on Walker Rd. at the Mailboxes for South bound vehicles and a flagman on Walker Rd. for North bound vehicles. There will also be a flagman at the junction of New Strike Lane and Eagle Rd.

The EPA has provided a community hot line telephone number and it is (928)-771- 0270. It may take a day or two to connect up to the EPA project trailer at the tailings site.
