FAQ 2 - What aquifer would be threatened by Powertech's proposed Centennial Project?

Print

Powertech's proposed Centennial Project would take place within the the Laramie-Fox Hills aquifer. This aquifer covers most of the Denver Basin area, approximately 7,000 square miles along the Front Range from Wyoming to Colorado Springs and east to Limon.

Commercial, municipal, agricultural and residential wells use the Laramie Fox Hills aquifer extensively. In February of 2001 there were 33,700 recorded wells. With the population and commercial growth in northern Colorado since 2001, it can be safe to assume the number of wells using this aquifer has increased significantly.

There is concern the Dakota-Cheyenne aquifer may also be affected. The Dakota-Cheyenne aquifer is Colorado's largest water yielding aquifer east of the Rockies and spreads beneath the most populated areas of Boulder, Larimer, Weld, Morgan and Logan counties. The Dakota-Cheyenne aquifer is much older (deeper) than the Laramie-Fox Hills aquifer and is in a geological layer known to have uranium deposits. Powertech's proposed mining would take place above of the Dakota-Cheyenne aquifer.

Uranium Mining Firms Fail to Meet Many Standards of Restoring Groundwater

 

Weld County residents opposed to the proposed uranium mine near Nunn are still not convinced their groundwater will be protected from contamination. Last year, Gov. Ritter signed legislation to protect groundwater from contamination as a result of leach uranium mining. House Bill 1161 requires that companies using leach uranium mines restore all affected groundwater to the condition it was in before mining. A new study, however, shows that these types of regulations may not prevent all groundwater contamination. Weld residents now are using this information as their primary argument against the uranium mine.

Foreign Ownership Issues Could Be Toxic to Uranium Companies' Mining Plans

 

The Atomic Licensing Board Judges Panel hearing that was scheduled for March 24, 2009 in Rapid City, SD was canceled due to a blizzard. The meeting should be rescheduled in the next three weeks; a posting will appear on the NRC website at www.nrc.gov/public-involve/public-meetings/index.cfm.

The Foreign Ownership issue is raised by petitioners challenging the Cameco, Inc. license renewal and expansion for the Crow Butte Uranium Mine and its North Trend expansion plan near Crawford, Nebraska. Powertech, Inc. plans to send representatives to the hearing since they are also a foreign owned corporation based in Canada who has applied to the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission for an ISL mining license in the Edgemont area. The EPA is sending officials to the hearing as well.

The Centennial Project in Northern Colorado

Print

Powertech Uranium Corporation has obtained the mineral rights and mining leases to 6,880 acres in northern Colorado's Weld County where they intend to use both open-pit and in-situ leaching (ISL) to mine uranium.  This Weld County site has been named the Centennial Project.

Great news in Loveland Colorado Real Estate.  Homes Under 300k are moving very fast and the inventory in those price ranges are getting lower.  This trend if it continues will help values.

Below are the stats in the 200-250k price bands.  This price brand represents the median price of homes in Loveland.

Very interesting times in Greeley real estate.  I like to call it the tale of two cities.  Greeley Real Estate vs UNC Real Estate. 

 

Although as you can see the Days on market and the Months of Inventory are decreasing in the lower price ranges the story behind the scenes is the amount of those sales that are distressed.  As you can see on my www.realestatesuperheroes.com blog.  51% of the Greeley home sales last year had been Short Sale or REO sales

561 109 650 1320  
      50.8%
