The Environment Agency Wales has commissioned a study of metal mine
impacts on the Afon Clewedog catchment upstream of Bersham. This area
includes mines such as Minera and its Deep Day lLevel and Parc Day
Level drainage adits. The woek is part of the Welsh Metal Mine Strategy
Scoping Study.
The report that is being prepared will consider if further assessment
or monitoring is required. Once the report is available the Agency will
attend a public meeting at Coedpoeth Parish Hall 24th January 2008
between 3 and 6pm to discuss the findings and answer questions.

The announcement includes a small-scale aerial photo of the area with
the mine sites marked on it.
