LAKE LINDEN, MI-- A meeting of a task force created to control stamp sands at the Keweenaw’s Buffalo Reef has been rescheduled.
The group created by the Environmental Protection Agency will take public input and craft a long-term plan to control the sands, which are a by-product of the copper mining industry.
Nearly a quarter of the annual lake trout yield from Lake Superior’s Michigan waters comes from within 50 miles of Buffalo Reef.
The meeting will take place Tuesday, January 30 at 6 p.m. at the Lake Linden-Hubbell High School auditorium.
