Earthworks Drops Cortina Lease Appeal, Shifts Focus to New Waste-Handling Projects

Earthworks Industries ( (TSE:EWK) ) has provided an announcement.

Earthworks Industries Inc. has decided not to appeal the U.S. District Court’s order upholding the termination of its lease between subsidiary Cortina Integrated Waste Management Inc. and the Kletsel Dehe Wintun Nation for the Cortina Rancheria waste management project, despite having invested millions of dollars and extensive time into the development. After reviewing the low likelihood of success, the significant cost of an appeal, and the potential requirement to pay or secure KDWN’s claimed legal costs, the board concluded that continuing the legal battle was not in the company’s best interest and will instead seek to deploy the environmentally rigorous waste-handling model developed for Cortina at other sites with new partners, signaling a strategic shift away from the long-contested project and toward alternative growth opportunities.
