33rd ANNUAL CONFERENCE

NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF ABANDONED MINE LAND PROGRAMS

 

The California and Nevada Abandoned Mine Lands Programs proudly announce their joint sponsorship of the 33rd Annual National Association of Abandoned Mine Land Programs (NAAMLP) Conference on October 9-12 at the Squaw Creek Conference Center.  The 2011 Annual Conference provides a tremendous opportunity to show the unique issues associated with abandoned mines in California, Nevada and other western states.  The theme for the conference is “The Gold and Silver States: The Legacy of Mines that Built the West”.  The gold and silver rushes were of great importance to the growth and development of our nation, and we are excited about sharing our western mining heritage and legacy with interested people from around the country.
