EPM Mining Announces the Granting of Minor Source Air Permit for
Its Sevier Playa Project
TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - May 20, 2014) - EPM Mining
Ventures Inc. ("EPM" or the "Company") (TSX-VENTURE:EPK)
(OTCQX:EPKMF) is pleased to announce that the Utah Division of Air
Quality ("UDAQ") has approved a Minor Source Air Permit application
for its Sevier Lake Playa Sulphate of Potash ("SOP") Project
located in southwestern Utah (the "Project").
"The decision by UDAQ to grant the Minor Source Permit is very
gratifying and another important step forward in the permitting
process," said Lance D'Ambrosio, Chief Executive Officer of EPM.
"Once we have our final permits, this will allow us to perform
on-playa earthwork and civil engineering. Additionally, we continue
monitoring for our Major Source Permit, which is required for
construction of our processing facility, and look forward to
receiving that at the appropriate time."
In cooperation with UDAQ, EPM has been pursuing a "dual permit
approach" to air quality management. The Minor Source Permit
application was submitted to UDAQ in October 2013 and, in July
2013, EPM began on-site monitoring for the Prevention of
Significant Deterioration or the Major Source Permit. The Minor
Source Permit will allow civil construction on the playa while the
Major Source Permit will allow construction and operation of the
processing plant once other necessary permits have been
received.
