Minnesota’s Hill Annex Mine State Park permanently closed to allow mining to resume
Hill Annex Mine State Park in Calumet has been deauthorized as a state park and is now closed. These actions are consistent with the historical expectation that mining would return to this site.
“Over its 60-year history, Hill Annex Mine produced 63 million tons of iron ore and was the sixth largest producer in the state. Then it served generations of visitors as a small state park and helped tell our mining history,” said Ann Pierce, director of the DNR’s Parks and Trails Division. “Now we are evaluating proposals to resume mining, which would contribute to local economies – and to Minnesota’s public schools.”

Ohio’s Shreve Lake still a work in progress after emergency drawdown in 2014
Those who live near and historically fished Shreve Lake before it was drained have reason for hope for the future.
Shreve Lake, in Wayne County in northeast Ohio, was the victim of an emergency drawdown in 2014 due to a problem at the dam.
“We do these dam inspections every so often … and you notice things,” said Curt Wagner, fish management supervisor for the ODNR Division of Wildlife in Akron. “We noticed water was seeping on the downstream side outside of the outlet pipe. It was tunneling outside the drain pipe, taken earthen dam with it. Over time, that can create a catastrophic failure.”
