Pinal County District 5 Supervisor Jeff Serdy has expressed his delight following the crossing of a major hurdle in a years-long battle to begin construction on the Resolution Copper project in Superior.
Earlier this week, the U.S. Forest Service and Resolution Copper completed a Federal land exchange after the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit gave it the green light on March 13th. This involves the transfer of 2,400 acres of land formerly managed by the Tonto National Forest to Resolution Copper, which, in return, has conveyed more than 5,400 acres of environmentally sensitive and culturally important land to the State of Arizona.
