North American Lithium spodumene mine project : comprehensive study report.: En106-206/2018E-PDF

"North American Lithium Inc. (the proponent) is proposing a mine Project that involves the production of lithium carbonate from a spodumene deposit until 2030. The Project is located in the southeastern part of the regional county municipality of Abitibi, in the municipality of La Corne. Under the Canadian Environmental Assessment Act (S.C. 1992, c. 37) (the former Act), a federal environmental assessment is required since Fisheries and Oceans Canada will likely need to issue an authorization as part of the Project, in accordance with the Fisheries Act, to allow for activities that results in serious harm to fish. The Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency (the Agency) prepared the comprehensive study in collaboration with the Federal Environmental Assessment Committee (the federal committee), composed of representatives of Fisheries and Oceans Canada, Natural Resources Canada, Environment and Climate Change Canada, and Health Canada. In the comprehensive study report, the Agency presents the effects of the Project on the following valued ecosystem components: atmospheric environment, water quality, fish and fish habitat, birds and bird habitat, and current use of lands and resources for traditional purposes”--Executive summary, p. ii.
