EPA holds hearing on Buena Vista casino water

printer friendly
The Environmental Protection Agency held a hearing on Tuesday night to take comments on a water permit for the proposed Buena Vista Rancheria casino.

The Buena Vista Band of Me-Wuk Indians plans to build a $200 million casino on its land. The tribe has applied for a permit to discharge leftover sewage water into Jackson Creek, a tributary of the Mokelumne River.

The EPA said the project will have to meet state standards because the tribe hasn't defined its own water quality standards. But local residents claim the casino will pollute the water supply.
