One of the proposal's lead sponsor's, Rep. Mark Honadel (R-South Milwaukee), said that the mine could bring many hundreds of jobs to northern Wisconsin as well as Milwaukee-area manufacturers of mining equipment and parts, such as Joy Global Inc., Monarch Corp., Super Steel Corp. and Caterpillar Inc., which purchased South Milwaukee-based mining equipment maker Bucyrus International in 2011. Honadel said the legislation could accomplish all that while protecting a region rich in streams and wetlands. [emphasis added]
