Community Foundation of Marquette County Announces Renewal of Community Environmental Monitoring Program Agreement

Marquette, MI – The Community Foundation of Marquette County has announced the renewal of a program designed to ensure independent, science-based monitoring of environmental impacts associated with Eagle Mine operations in the U.P.
The Community Environmental Monitoring Program – or CEMP – agreement continues the work between Eagle Mine LLC, Superior Watershed Partnership, and the Keweenaw Bay Indian Community to maintain their longstanding commitment to transparency, environmental stewardship, and community engagement.
Under the renewed terms, Eagle Mine will provide financial support to CEMP activities, with the Community Foundation managing the grant to SWP and KBIC for monitoring implementation.
The agreement currently extends through December 31, 2027, or until the conclusion of Eagle Mine’s operations.
