Pasco Commissioners approved the 7 Diamonds mine despite the dozens of individuals who testified at the Commissioner meeting. 7 Diamonds have been preparing to commence mining operations. In the meantime, they have filed for a 60-acre expansion of the mining property Included in this expansion, is an expansion of the overall limerock mining footprint. It will be passed by the Commissioners when brought up for a vote.
The only way to stop this assault on the environment is to replace as many unfriendly politicians as possible. In view of that, I am asking for your support of Kelly Smith for the State House of Representatives. Kelly has been a strong advocate for stopping this mine, and others. She needs our support. It is the only way we can prevent further degradation to the Florida environment
