A key element of the Environmental Impact Assessment [EIA] process will focus on the impact of mine development and operations on water resources and the associated water environments. Our experiences in working with all aspects of water environments ensures that we have a comprehensive
Most countries require an environmental impact assessment (EIA) before giving the green light to a mining project. EIA processes provide a valuable opportunity for citizens to participate in decisions about mines. The problem is, project proponents often submit long, complex EIA documents that are incomprehensible to lay people.
Any type of mining activity demands an A to assess potentials for both positive and negative impacts to the environment and to use the produced results to mitigate the negatives and optimise the positives. Our experiences in working with all aspects of water, environment and health can thus benefit the client and provide comprehensive and

Consideration of both current and potential environmental challenges is an integral part of the mining life cycle. They aim to mitigate the environmental impact of their operations and have comprehensive environmental management programs to meet regulatory standards and address risk management.
This comprehensive environmental management plan (EMP) template is free to use and customisable for your projects and company. An environmental management plan is a plan which is prepared and documented at the beginning of a project in order to plan out and understand how your project will impact the environment, and how you will manage these impacts and risks over the course of a project.
Jul 23, 2020· Given the potential environmental impacts of the Castle project, Wildsight and First Nations say the project should be subject to the additional scrutiny of a federal environmental review.

Environmental permits and assessments are important to mining companies because they increase the time, costs, and risks associated with bringing a mine into production. Costs may rise because of expenditures on permitting and environmental assessment and on implementing changes in project design that the compliance process may require.
Environmental/Social Impact Assessment and Permitting Understanding a proposed project’s potential environmental and social impacts and regulatory constraints is critical to the development of timely and cost-effective project plans, evaluative studies, sound engineering designs, effective stakeholder management and successful permitting.
