I support the TMT, but the EIS was negligent, and the Resource Management Plan still hasn't been completed. The major issue with the EIS was that it concluded adverse cultural impacts, then went on to say that these impacts were mitigated with the $1 million annual educational fund. This mitigation, I can understand, is insulting to some.

If you felt the FEIS was negligent, why didn't you, or any one else, challenge it in a court of law back in 2010. There was plenty of public notice and discussion over a 2 year period prior to 2010. As it stands now, the document is binding because no one challenged the FEIS during the 60 day window after the document was accepted.
