A digest of environmental regulations pertinent to open pit mining in Canada (current at April 1975) / prepared by Dames and Moore. : M38-13/76-16E-PDF
"This digest summarizes federal and provincial acts and regulations governing the environmental impact of open pit mining and lists the important agencies involved. Municipal regulations, which may be more stringent, are not considered. Experience to date shows the maximum benefit to all involved accrues if environment-related activities are considered from the earliest stages of mine planning. Agencies can and will in this case use maximum flexibility in assisting the producer conform to regulations. The trend in current legislation is towards overall management of natural resources. This, coupled with the application of "nuisance" law - ie, the freedom of the public to enjoy commonly established rights - places the onus on producers to show adequate compliance with regulations. Required land rehabilitation after mining is an example. However, Canadian experience shows that early attention to overall management can directly enhance the success of mining"--Abstract, p. v.
