sad day for mak, page-20

On my reading MAK's "draft Environmental Impact Statement" has "generally left stakeholders and Government satisfied that potential issues have been appropriately identified and addressed."

Note the use of the word "generally." There is a significantly differennt meaning if that word is not included.

On my reading, before "the achievement of acceptable environmental outcomes" more work needs to be done.

I stand to be corrected of course on this interpretation.

From MAK's ASX announcement released today:

"On April 30, the Minister stated: I have been advised that the Minemakers draft Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) and Supplement demonstrated a systematic, comprehensive, high quality approach to impact identification, analysis, reduction, mitigation (and in some cases offsets), that has generally left stakeholders and Government satisfied that potential issues have been appropriately identified and addressed.

It is now critical to the achievement of acceptable environmental outcomes that the mitigation measures and commitments / recommendations proposed by Minemakers and Assessment Report 64 are followed through to implementation. I trust Minemakers will take the same high standard approach to managing environmental impacts as it has to the environmental impact assessment process."
