Top Bureau of Land Management officials are scheduled to meet with Forty Mile area gold miners tomorrow (Fri). The meeting follows recent year's tensions, highlighted by an August 2013 Environmental Protection Agency lead, armed raid of several mining operations. As KUAC’s Dan Bross reports, some miners continue to conflict with regulators.
