The new Minister of the Environment, MarieChantal Chassé, does not want to commit, for now, to submit the project Authier Sayona Quebec to an evaluation by the Office of Public Hearings on the Environment (BAPE).
A text by Thomas Deshaies
It breaks with the position of its predecessor, Isabelle Melançon, who had officially taken a stand for the subjection of the lithium mine project to the Procedure for the Assessment and Review of Environmental Impacts, including a BAPE .
The cabinet director of the new environment minister, Hugo Delanay, said there was no decision on the issue. He states that the Minister will wait for the filing of applications for a certificate of authorization before using or not using section 31.1.1.1 of the Environment Quality Act. This article gives the government legitimacy to submit a controversial project to a thorough analysis, even if it is below the threshold of 2000 tonnes produced per day.
Once filed, we have three months to decide if we want to submit it to the procedure.
Hugo Delanay, Chief of StaffWhat is certain is that for the CAQ, the exploitation of resources must be done with social acceptability, however clarified, Mr. Delanay. Ms. Chassé was made aware of the matter.
Isabelle Melançon felt that the citizen's concerns justified it
Isabelle Melançon's decision was made before the proponent officially filed its application for a certificate of authorization with the Ministère de l'Environnement. Ms. Melançon felt that citizen concerns justified such a position, at a time when citizen mobilization was gaining momentum.
A mobilization that does not seem to run out of steam, while a new citizen committee has been formed today .
Remember that the mining company wants to avoid an analysis by the BAPE to accelerate the obtaining of the necessary permits for the exploitation of the mine. Sayona Québec has, on numerous occasions, explained that it has planned a 100-tonne project below the 2000-tonne threshold, which would automatically trigger the BAPE analysis process. According to the company, the high demand for lithium requires rapid production.
