One of the concerns the pro-lease camp raised during this year's leasing battle was over erosion at Mittersill.

Nonetheless, the inspector is working with Cannon to craft an erosion-control plan for the Mittersill work road, which is something that the Department of Resources and Economic Development agreed to do in negotiations with the state Senate earlier this year.
