Post-project analysis : a case study of the Jolu Gold Mine, Northern Saskatchewan / A. Faye Bres.: En107-3/27-1992E-PDF

"The study consists of three parts. First, the formal Saskatchewan Environmental Assessment and Review Process is described, and compared to the process applied during the Jolu Environmental Impact Assessment. This provided an opportunity to study the effectiveness of the Saskatchewan process, and to determine how closely the official process is followed in practice. Second, the Jolu Environmental Impact Statement is critiqued. The critique concentrates on the scientific and technical soundness of the Environmental Impact Statement, its clarity, and its focus on important issues (as discussed in Ross 1987). Third, an evaluation is conducted on the accuracy of the predictions of environmental impacts made during the Jolu Impact Assessment. Because mitigative measures were recommended in the Impact Statement for many of the potential impacts, the evaluation of accuracy of impacts also involved an evaluation of the effectiveness of mitigative measures applied. The evaluation of the accuracy of impact predictions and of the effectiveness of mitigative measures applied involved conducting a detailed study of the environmental management program of the Jolu Mine from start up to decommissioning"--Abstract.
