Better In Our Back Yard (BIOBY) supports PolyMet’s decision to petition the Minnesota Supreme Court in the recent Court of Appeals’ decision to remand PolyMet’s Permit to Mine and Dam Safety permits to a contested case.

BIOBY trusts the 15+ years of research, environmental review and planning conducted by PolyMet, the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources and Minnesota Pollution Control Agency. Because these decisions were based on scientific fact and represent PolyMet’s commitment to responsible mining, BIOBY believes that moving forward with the NorthMet Project is the right decision for Minnesota.

BIOBY will continue to maintain our support of industrial development in Minnesota and PolyMet’s continual advancement to operation and production.
