Statute overview

About this statute

This provision says the Order sets the rules for conserving the environment in mining and quarry extraction activities. People involved in prospecting, exploration, mining, or quarry extraction must carry out those activities in a way that does not harm the environment. A mining or quarrying license applicant must produce an environmental impact assessment. An environmental impact assessment for mining must describe and inventory key environmental features and assess impacts before mining starts. An application for mine and quarry prospection or exploration must include an environmental conservation plan, and that plan must be submitted to the Ministry for analysis and approval.
