DEQ Defends Mine Permit Review Before Montana Supreme Court
Montana Department of Environmental Quality seeks to persuade the state high court June 21 that its review of Tintina Montana Inc.’s Black Butte Copper Project tailings plan was thorough. The case challenges a 2022 district court ruling that DEQ erred in evaluating cement tailings storage near the Smith River headwaters. Plaintiffs Trout Unlimited and allies allege the plan risks Montana’s trout fisheries and rafting rivers.

The Federal Reserve kept the federal funds rate at about 5.1 percent after 10 straight hikes and signaled possible two more increases this year. Prospects for higher rates, plus easing wholesale prices, reflect a hawkish tilt as officials foresee a higher-for-longer stance despite inflation cooling. Powell warns of continued price control efforts to reach 2 percent.
