Environmental Permitting and Compliance

Managing environmental requirements to ensure smooth project execution.

  • In recent years, securing permits for exploration and mining projects has become more challenging, leading to delays that impact project timelines and budgets. Regulatory frameworks are often unclear or contradictory, making it difficult for companies to navigate the complex bureaucratic landscape. Additionally, even with permits in hand, litigation may arise if stakeholders feel their concerns haven't been adequately addressed.

  • By assessing environmental risks early in your project and creating targeted mitigation strategies, you can streamline your path through the permitting process and reduce potential obstacles

  • Governments and stakeholders are increasingly vigilant about monitoring your adherence to both mandatory and voluntary commitments. Staying compliant not only meets legal requirements but also fosters trust with key players.

  • Understanding the potential impacts of surface disturbances from your project activities is essential for identifying risks and navigating regulatory hurdles, including compensation requirements.

  • Openly communicating with regulators and local communities about your project’s goals, timeline, and potential impacts can help build goodwill and generate support, reducing resistance and facilitating smoother progress.
