Welcome to Park City Environmental WebGIS Module and for those of you that have been living within our great community, greetings.  One of the highest priorities for the city is protecting our citizens as well as the pristine environment we all enjoy within the Wasatch Mountains .  As you may or may not be aware, long before being recognized as an Olympic venue, the city was known as one of the great American silver mining towns.  As a result, during a century of active mining, the Park City mining district produced millions of ounces of silver in addition to a substantial amount of mine tailing waste.  Park City has compiled this WebGIS module as a resource to identify the environmental impacts related to the historical mining district. The following is the data you will find at this site:
