Don’t let the San Juan Ridge Mine contaminate our wells, take our water, and destroy our environment and economy!   Read why we oppose the Mine here.

Some 90 people attended SJRTA’s annual membership meeting, held on February 24.

Updates on the mine were given, some minor amendments to the by-laws were made, and seven candidates ran for and were elected to the seven Steering Committee seats. (See About Us for Steering Committee members.)

There is a new Luhdorff & Scalmanini hydrological report, commissioned by San Juan Mining Corporation. It can be found here.

See the Take Action page for recommended action on the mine. Members and friends, please renew your membership now for 2013. (See Donate page.)

The San Juan Ridge Taxpayers Association (SJRTA) is a membership organization representing taxpayer interests on the San Juan Ridge of Nevada County, CA since 1974. The SJRTA membership includes taxpaying residents and non-resident landowners of the San Juan Ridge and other local concerned citizens.

The SJRTA is committed to the maintenance of a rural environment on the San Juan Ridge, wishing to keep it mostly low-density general forest and agriculture. Our primary focus in 2012 is the proposed reopening of the San Juan Ridge Mine.
