I have been hunting in the Otter creek drainage for the last 30 years. I have no doubt that the wildlife in this area will suffer if this railroad and mine are built. It would be a great loss to sportsman if this remote area of Montana is industrialized. I also wonder how we will cope with the additional rail traffic here in Billings MT. I frequently have to wait for trains now in downtown Billings. Who will pay for the additional overpasses or underpasses? I do not believe our pristine areas should be spoiled so that dirty coal can be shipped to China. Thank You for this chance for me to comment.
