Project Description

Green Light Wisconsin LLC (Green Light) has requested a prospecting permit on 519 acres of national forest system lands. Green Light has submitted a plan of operation that describes drilling 15 holes from 13 temporary pads, using 2,233 feet of temporary access routes. The pads and access routes account for a total disturbance footprint of 0.883 acres. The applicant would construct on upland sites during any time of year and on wetland sites during frozen-ground conditions. The project is expected to take one year to complete, from initial mobilization through abandonment and site stabilization.
