The Maine Land Use Planning Commission is scheduled to deliberate and potentially decide on the Wolfden rezoning application for the Pickett Mountain Mining Project at 10 a.m. today.
The LUPC’s meeting is at Jeff’s Catering at 15 Littlefield Road in Brewer. The deliberations will be live streamed as well.
The zoning change would allow Wolfden to apply with the Maine Department of Environmental Protection for a state mining permit. Without the commission’s approval, Wolfden can’t proceed with its plans to mine minerals like zinc, copper and lead at Pickett Mountain in northern Penobscot County.
