Montana最高法院为黑布丁铜矿扫清了道路,拒绝需要额外水证。 Montana Supreme Court clears way for Black Butte Copper mine, rejecting need for extra water permit.
蒙大拿最高法院已作出有利于Tintina Montana的裁决,允许黑布丁铜项目在没有额外水证的情况下进行。 The Montana Supreme Court has ruled in favor of Tintina Montana, allowing the Black Butte Copper Project to proceed without an additional water permit. 环境团体认为,矿井的脱水过程需要许可证,但法院裁定,根据州法律,这一活动不符合水的“有益使用”条件。 Environmental groups argued that the mine's dewatering process required a permit, but the court determined that this activity does not qualify as a "beneficial use" of water under state law. 这一决定得到了5名法官的支持,为采矿项目清除了关键的法律障碍,但令关注水资源影响的环境组织感到失望。 This decision, supported by five justices, clears a key legal hurdle for the mining project but has been met with disappointment from environmental organizations concerned about impacts on water resources.
