The KSM Project received an environmental assessment certificate in 2014, however, to continue to advance the construction and exploration activities, we need to obtain a variety of other provincial, federal and local government statutory authorizations (e.g., permits, licenses, land use by-law approvals, etc.).
Indigenous partners
The draft of all our permit applications is first shared with our indigenous partner’s including the Nisga’a Nation, Tahltan Nation, Gitxsan, Gitanyow, and Tseault Skii km Lax Ha for review and comment prior to submission to the government for review. We encourage their feedback and track their comments and our responses.
Regulators
We prepare comprehensive permitting applications supported by thorough technical studies and analyses that address government requirements and provide timely responses to information requests from regulators. We also provide a comprehensive annual report to the Environmental Assessment Office in compliance with our EA Certificate.
