What are EMAB’s Environmental Priorities?

In EMAB’s start-up days, the Board, with community input, focused on water, fish, wildlife, and air. Early on we realized just how many environmental issues there were and how comprehensive our mandate was. We knew that some areas were of highest priority and needed our complete focus. Thanks to the fact that the Aboriginal members on the Board communicate with their communities and understand their concerns, we were able, right from the start, to establish priorities.

In the last couple of years, air, closure planning and Traditional Knowledge have become as important as we look forward to the years when the mine site will need to be prepared to return to a more natural state.
