HOI Contesting Bad Mining Permits and We Need Your Donations!

January 2014

North Canton Mine Tour
HOI past president Rudy Habben views the North Canton coal strip mine area with Illinois Sierra Club Clean Water Advocate Dr. Cindy Skrukrud and members of the Canton Area Citizens for Environmental Issues.

Welcome New Year! And don't think for a second that your Heart of Illinois Group Board members are not hard at work to help our local area, state, and national environmental issues. We need your membership support and donations. Currently, HOI is in litigation on the North Canton Mine permit appeal at the Circuit Court in Fulton County. We have also challenged the renewal of the North Canton Mine permit along with Canton Area Citizens for Environmental Issues.

Your donations are very thankfully received! Please send your check made out to "Heart of Illinois Group Sierra Club" in any amount and mail it to:
