The requirement for a scoping document is not a 'rap on the knuckles'. A scoping document is not issued/required dependent on the level of information provided. It is issued/provided dependent on the level of assessment the EPA has determined. The level of assessment is depended on the number of EPA key environmental factors potential impacted, the scale and extent of those impacts and public interest (determined via the public review period for the referral document).The proponent has provided detailed information in its referral documentation . However further studies, particularly related to groundwater and subterranean fauna, are required to determine the extent of the proposal's direct and indirect impacts, and how the environmental issues could be managed".

Correction to previous post - TMT is environmental review not public environmental review. Does not effect the rest of post.
