Glenwood Hot Springs Protection Act

This bill would bar the Secretary of the Interior from processing or approving any application to expand existing mineral operations for limestone on certain Bureau of Land Management land near Glenwood Springs in Garfield County, Colorado. The ban covers expansions on mining or mill site claims under the general mining laws. It also covers mineral material sales contracts or applications for limestone under the Materials Act of 1947 and the Surface Resources Act of 1955. The affected area is defined by specific township, range, and section locations, and it includes the site of the Mid-Continent Limestone Quarry.
