0:39Now PlayingGov. Tim Walz signed an executive order restricting nonferrous mining near the Boundary Waters after Congress moved to roll back federal protections for the region. The order directs Minnesota agencies to halt new environmental reviews, permitting work and new state leases for nonferrous mining in the Rainy River Headwaters Watershed while ongoing litigation remains unresolved. Republican lawmakers criticized the move, arguing it could hurt northern Minnesota’s economy and block mining projects from going through the state’s environmental review process.
