Penobsquis Residents Seeking Damages Against Potash Mine Get Support

About 30 people braving the rain to support people in Penobsquis who say their quality of life has worsened because of the nearby potash mine. 

Stephanie Merril with the province's Conservation Council says drivers honked their horns when they saw the crowd assembled outside the All Seasons Inn in Sussex.  An 11 day hearing is being held at the Inn with the province's mining commissioner as 26 complainants seek damages for light pollution, dust, noise, and loss of water.
