Description

Mark Dorin and Colin Smith help Jenny understand the gravel pit mining impacts on local communities and the ultimate risks to downstream users. We hear from residents and advocates for the Bighill Springs near Cochrane, the South McDougal Flats near Sundre, and the Medicine Flats in Red Deer County.

Clarification: Lyze highlights that gravel companies around Bighill Springs are supposed to stop one meter before the waterline.
