Comment Deadline – Triple G Placer mining proposal – Rapid Creek/Johnson Siding,
October 26, 2023 @ 11:30 pm - 11:59 pm
October 26th is the Comment Deadline – Triple G Placer mining proposal
It is a placer mine proposal, one mile southwest of Johnson Siding. It may be within a half mile east of Placerville Camp. Hand tools will be used and a battery powered recirculating sluice. Water will be brought from off site, but the sluice water will be dumped on site, which is 150 feet from the creek. We assume Rapid Creek is “the creek”. Closed roads will be opened for traffic from camp to mining site.
