Loeffler offering Mining 101 for Valentine’s Day
Bob Loeffler is teaching his popular Mining 101 Course on Feb. 14 at the Alaska Forum on the Environment. The forum is free Friday, so there is no charge. The course will be 9 a.m to 4 p.m. at the Dena’ina Center, in the Kahtnu No.1 room on the second floor. This one-day course, which Loeffler has given many times, provides an overview of the min- ing industry, especially as it exists in Alaska. The course will provide attendees with an un- derstanding of the exploration and develop- ment process, environmental issues, industry economics, the permitting process and public issues. The course is designed for those who may one day work in the industry, those who are inter- ested in natural resource and environmental policies that surround mining or those who are interested in the issues of the day. Participants may receive a certificate of completion for con-
tinuing education at the end of the course. Loeffler, Research Pro- fessor of Public Policy Institute of Social and Economic Research University of Alaska An- chorage, has more than 35 years of government, management and natural resources experience,
including seven years as director of the Alaska Division of Mining, Land and Water. He has a master’s degree in Environmental Engineering (Stanford University) and a master’s degree in City and Regional Planning (Harvard University). While pre-registration is not required, the forum would prefer you register, even for free at: web. cvent.com/event/adfcae9b-5bb2-4f29-ac22- f277d222e27d/regProcessStep1
