The Ministry of Natural Resources is forming an advisory committee to assist it with a rehabilitation of the former Steep Rock Mine site in Atikokan.
The Ministry is working to address environmental issues surrounding for former iron ore mine site.
Project Manager Rob Purdon says the committee will hold its first meeting later this month.
"We're going to get some public feedback on the current uses of the site," says Purdon, "and what they envision for site management activities going forward."
Purdon is hoping to have a draft plan in place by the end of the year.
