Marshall Mon, 19 May 2008 03:36:18 +0000 http://www.thecenterformichigan.net/blog/?p=834#comment-797 I am a little concerned that Mr. Powers speaks out of both sides of his mouth. On the one hand he is all for Michigan and it's economic renewal and on the other hand opposes Project Eagle in Marquette County. I worked in the mining industry for 38 years and I know that a mining project today cannot afford an environmental disaster. If Project Eagle can meet all of the requirements of the states new mining regulations why is he opposed to new good paying jobs in the UP? Might have something to do with I have mine so not in my back yard! I am a little concerned that Mr. Powers speaks out of both sides of his mouth.
